that's why new contributions and edits have to get approved first. And I wouldn't mind having a parallel stream of docs and examples 
in StackOverflow that we can directly refer to (or copy-paste nice examples from). I guess I simply don't see the final scenario 
that you seem to be concerned about. Can you be more specific?

After all, this is just the start of the SO documentation...so I expect an initial rush by a few contributors (early adopters), and 
after that it will be up to us (the SCons team) to fill in most of the infos there. And especially for the deep-knowledge parts 
there won't be a lot of people that are capable of describing how things work, let alone having the time to do so.

And don't forget: every reference and mentioning of the keyword "SCons" on the internet counts...this is really a kind of cheap PR 
for us if we manage to keep the SO docs going.

Best regards,

Dirk
