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?
Wikis have their own version control and they're meant for a much wider
audience. I think general documentation definitely belongs on a wiki,
not git. Edit, fix typo, done in 30 seconds :)
No, I am unaware of any consensus on any changes, just have a vague
feeling that MoinMoin is somewhat as appreciated in Debian as CDBS :-)
Anyone interested in discussing practicalities of migrating away from
MoinMoin for the Debian wiki, please join the tinker mailinglist at
https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/blend-tinker-devel
I'd be interested in knowing more as well. I can't imagine there are
more features in MoinMoin that can't be migrated to MediaWiki and
friends, so I want to find out what I'm missing.
