Ram,
What are you talking about? After a google search, I found this: http://contao-factory.com. Is that what you're talking about? If so, can you fill us in on what it's all about?
Thanks!
Hi Ben
In short words, it's a new project that its aim to provide a solid Contao documentation for regular users and for developers. The official documentation missed many important things, so we decided to create a complete guide to Contao.
Do you know if it will be multi-lingual? I know there are a lot of people that want (and will contribute to) better documentation in English.
This documentation will be in English

Sounds exciting! Is there a forum post anywhere that we can find out more?
Hi Ben, super-sleuth you!
theres no forum post as far as i'm aware. I think its just in set-up stage at the mo, but i'm sure someone will announce it soon. Tru asked me to help out, but unfortunately I can't (hence my message).
How will this differentiate itself from the community wiki:

@Ben
The idea was born while participating in the discussion you actually started (how to make Contao more popular)
@acenes
First of all, it will be based on Contao itself. Secondly it will have, I mean, it has attractive design. Thirdly, the community wiki has no content at all - that's the difference.
Both thumbs up from my side for implementig this with contao.
And yes, its finally all about content. Looking forward to what you are bringing up.
I've already posted my first developer guide for Image Headline in the Extension Docs section.

Note that Blair is still working on the design, so the wrapper images and search box and other things might change. I helped with the MooTools Kickass mouseover menu and Tru did some CSS for styling the pages.
the site is on line?!? good work

That looks fantastic!
Wow ... now that's a documentation site that people can get excited about!
Is there any public information about the new "factory" site? I think there are a lot of people who would like to get involved (myself included).
Also, why is it called "factory"? Maybe "school" would be more appropriate for a documentation site.
Hey Ben-
We're working on filling up the site with content now and any contributions are more than welcome. I will hook you up with a login so you can get in there and poke around. If anyone else is interested just PM me!
The "Contao-Factory" was a donated domain name from Marcin Lachowski. We all really liked it in that it had a nice ring to it and gave us some marketing potential with the "factory" theme... A place where you can get things get done. Nothing more than that, though!
Blair - yes, please send over some account login details when you have the time.
I do think that "Contao Factory" is far catchier than "Contao School". The name has a nice ring to it.
A factory is where things are churned out that work... Also, a factory includes both newbies and developers (school kinda only for newbies), hence it's a source for both. I've contributed some content already (ok, also some design), so everyone, better get their ass into gear and add their content!! Best to fine-tune the layout now, while it's still in the dev stage.
