:"I use VQWiki to keep track of the endless details involved in maintaining a JBoss server farm - And other usefull java development details and trivia.  Basically I'll lookup a technique - then transfer the 'need to know' details into the wiki so that I save time the next time I have to do something.  Bottom line - it saves me LOTS of time! Thanks for the hard work on the software, I really appreciate it.

:This wiki implementation has proved to be just right for our needs; we initially set it up as a repository for coding examples, but we've found other great uses since then. Design discussions, previously done in email threads, have been moved to Wiki pages; this gives us more durable documentation of our thought processes. It's also, in a small way, created more of a sense of community within our development team."
