Anyway maybe we should start a vote on "create a > separate free for all wiki" and then decide what we want/don't want/need. About the vote: I think that it is beyond the scope of development to decide on wiki content. I must say that I am in favour of separating the main website as source of news and general information and detailed information into different domains. Whether this should be hosted by Drupal or not, time and the requirements will tell. So please share your findings, like what wil be transferred, how will the data be structured, how is quality controlled and how does it interact with our other web outlets (www/dev/svn). Then share your findings with the different wikis and how this matches the requirements. It sounds like I am asking you to do everything, but there probably are many others that are in favour so delegate :-) Eventually we can then decide on how to continue. N>
