As far as I can tell, that's a pretty uncommon opinion, or rather even if it is "more cumbersome", it tends to *encourage* contribution as opposed to otherwise. Github is hugely successful, for instance. I can't imagine many people finding it much more cumbersome than figuring out how to make a contribution to, well, any project.
Well, don't forget we're talking about contributing typo fixes, or a few lines of text. The git thing IS an overhead AND confuses people because it's not what you expect on the wiki. Dieter
