IMaCh Wiki

+As discussed at the last REVES meeting in Beijing, we created a Wiki for IMaCh were people having used IMaCh (or having not been able to used it because of obscure or unadequate features) can add tips and discuss various aspects of IMaCh and interface with other statistical softwares. In many aspects, our "official documentation" is not accurate enough. + +

Wikis are a very promising way to give information closer to your expectations. It also a very dynamic movement if you consider the first International Wikimedia Conference in Francfurt (August 2005), where most Wikis were represented and in particular Wikipedia. + +
