I agree with Daniel point of view about a more wiki style. I am one of
sysadmins in the biggest italian debian community (debianizzati.org): in the
next days we will open a topic to discuss the opportunity to take part in
the ISP project as a community project. Of course I'll let you know about
the conclusions we'll hopefully reach.
Bye,
Ferdinando
