I really appreciate this article, and Terry’s point that Agile methodology is sometimes “an excuse to not document ANYTHING.” Finding a lightweight documentation method is the biggest problem I’ve encountered so far – and I do think a wiki might be the answer not just for a UI spec, but general requirements and details as well. We’ve just deployed a SharePoint-based portal internally, with wiki functionality. It has its limitations, and it’s certainly not the most robust wiki tool I’ve seen, but it does allow multiple/separate wikis to be created and affiliated with specific projects, which is handy. Getting everyone else on the team to use it is a whole other problem!
