At my job, we have several relatively small namespaces, often with just 5 to 10 pages per namespace. The top level namespaces are specific for organisational units (OU) (one to one with ACL groups). Each OU has delete access in its own namespace, and read accesss in the namespaces of all other OUs. The OUs are free to subdivide their own namespace to their liking. Within each groups namespace, often a subnamespace tree of 2 or three levels deep is created. In many cases only the top level's start page, or one level deeper, is used for introductions and pointers to the detail contents, with a heading per subnamespace. That works quite nicely, although it's not as clean (nor as convoluted) as a "Dewey Decimal system". -- ( Kees Nuyt ) c[_] -- DokuWiki mailing list - more info at http://www.dokuwiki.org/mailinglist
