> They've thrown away the benefits of a incredible wiki-based platform (where changes were pretty much instantaneous and any of us could easily make a difference to the docs!), the (actually pretty decent) WYSIWYG editor and an overall frictionless editing experience and replaced it with what, some (not even Markdown) document files in a GitHub repository.
