I could also host them; i have plenty of space. the wiki is easy enough to install.

I have no problem setting up the wiki, hosting the files, and things like that. Those are tasks I can do easily with my web space. Take care, Sina ________________________________ From: programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Andreas Stefik Sent: Wednesday, April 01, 2009 2:51 PM To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Fruit basket project Jamal,I'll check with IT here and see if we have any kind of wiki system setup. Itmight be possible to get the university to host it or help, but they're incredibly picky about database access, so it might be tough for us. I'llask though; see what's available and the time commitment it would require toget it all going.I'll probably announce our latest project today (or soon, depending on whenwe get it all written). Hopefully, we can get some community interest and get folks involved. Andreas Hi Andreas, That may be worth trying if we can find someone who will set it up, manage the accounts and guidelines, etc. Is that something your team could do? I am looking forward to checking out some of the projects you've been working on.
