There are a few things I'd like to add to the documentation, but the barrier to 
entry is too high.
I'm wondering if we could allow comments by users (or those with bugreports 
account, or has an an account and is authorized) to be able to comment on the 
online help? I found the PHP comments helpful, when they were not completely 
off-base (let's face it, it's PHP :-))

It would also be cool is QtCreator could fetch these (assuming it ends up 
happening)
This functionality used to exist, but it was scrapped when the move to the new 
website happened. There was lots of valuable contents there, and I know I for 
one was quite pissed off that my contributions there were no longer available. 
So, it is unfortunate, but don't count on this happening any time soon.
I use a lot Qt Assistant … so, never knew such comments were on the old website.

I really like the idea to see the comments on Qt Assistant … I hope in the 
future there will be a way to see user’s comments directly into Qt Assistant… 
but it’s not easy. How can you manage multi-languages ?


I filed a feature request for that a couple of years ago too (I also prefer the offline documentation), but as the web version got scrapped, I believe this request also got closed.

For handling multi-languages: you don't. The Qt documentation is in English, just as the API itself. Why would you support comments in other languages? If people can read the documentation to begin with, they can also read comments in English.
