User Comments in Online Documentation

If I was to give a prize for the best online documentation of a product, I would definitely give it to the documentation of MySQL. Not only is the documentation very informative, but MySQL guys also allow user comments in their documentation.

Just check this link out, and you'll see what I mean. I was running into a problem today - I was trying to drop a database, but MySQL complained about some foreign key contraints. So I check the documentation, and sure enough - other users had similar problem and posted the solution !

I wish all documentation was as great as MySQL's ! I'm writing some stuff in Python now, and documentation sucks. As a result my productivity, while writing this otherwise easy script, has been very very poor.

PS. Here is something ironic. Google created a special page for searching Microsoft specific documentation.
