IMHO, this isn't a matter of either-or, but of concurrent development along 2 related tracks: (1) Installing some reasonable existing Wiki on feather. It would serve the very valuable role of accumulating Perl 6 content, and would be the primary *interim* Perl 6 *oriented* Wiki. (2) Developing a *new* (substantially, increasingly) Perl 6 *based* Wiki on feather. One of the design requirements would be some mechanism for automatically porting its initial content from the *interim* Perl 6 *oriented* Wiki. It would be good to have (1) ASAP. There's no reason that people who are interested in (2) have to be interested in (1) or vice versa.
