let's create a new thread then :) > I just wanted to chime in to encourage anyone wanting to do the wiki > modernization to get in touch with me to discuss further. thank you for the offer but why not have the follow up in a publicly archived list? happy to switch to -www, if -devel is not ideal I think that a retrospective/postmortem of past attempts would be very valuable. I offer to write one if you'd be okay to share all of the context with me (you could review it before it gets published). also, I'd think that nailing down the requirements for a new platform and for the content to be migrated (e.g. drop any pages that are >X years old) would be an important prerequisite for any technical work. has this been done in previous migration attempts? to start with, do we have "rough consensus" that a git-backed wiki would be preferable? thanks, serafi
