Sorry I deleted my post before I saw your reply because it was ridiculously off-topic and I felt like it didn't really belong.. But to provide some context I essentially said that Stack Exchange was an unacceptable replacement for a manual in Fogbugz and Kiln.
Mainly that's because a lot of the right questions haven't been asked yet (I could probably provide a few of those instead of searching then quitting when I don't find what I need), or the information is out of date. It doesn't seem like there's a critical mass of users yet for it to be solid enough to replace the manual.
Also note I'm not saying I need a physical book in my hands. Just something indexed with a table of contents with most of the info I might go looking for.
I appreciate the responses here and on Twitter though, guys. Your support (excluding my qualms wrt documentation) really does seem top notch.
- pettazz 15y agoWhoa, are they replacing _all_ documentation with SO? I figured they meant that this was going to replace the severely less than helpful developer forums and FAQ pages.
- kmontrose 15y agoNo, Facebook is replacing their forums with Stack Overflow. See their blog post: http://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/545/ http://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/545/ Their documentation remains independent, the alternative is insane. (disclaimed: SE Inc. employee)
- cosgroveb 15y agoYeah. Sorry about taking this thread waay off-topic.
- cosgroveb 15y agoNot for the Facebook API. I was talking about FogBugz and Kiln whose documentation was entirely replaced by Stack Exchange. Sorry for the confusion, I really took this thread far afield.
