32 Sup,
33
34 I just tried to edit an page and got an Internal Server Error. I think
35 we should make the decision as soon as possible about where to keep the
36 wiki to avoid the extra work and de-motivating/confusing moving/re-creation.
37
38 Then direct people to the wiki from the README and either remove the
39 WIKI tab on github or use it.

41 Great work on setting up a new wiki, but I think it is even better to
42 keep it all in one place so I vote for using the github wiki and to set
43 up a sup/heliotrope site there when the time is ripe. What do you think?
44
45 By the way.. at the moment I am the only public member of the github
46 organization, is that by design.. ? And you could also make me an owner
47 (as you previously mentioned) if that gives me the possibility to manage
48 more of those things!

66 Oops - I've been moving the server and hadn't tested that - fixed now.

72 Just re-checked and anyone with a github account can edit the wiki
73 through the front end, which was my main concern. So given using the
74 github wiki does mean everything is in one place I would now lean
75 towards the github wiki as the way to go. I have pushed my wiki
76 contents to the github wiki to try it out and seems fine:
77
78 https://github.com/sup-heliotrope/sup/wiki
79
80 Matthieu - do you still have a strong preference for ikiwiki?

86
87 I've made you an owner and made myself public - the public/private
88 thing wasn't deliberate, just an accident of how people were added I
89 think.

106 I've been convinced : centralizing all the resources is the best move
107 at the moment. My only complaint was about the lack of a search
108 engine. Let's hope it won't be that bad.
