The wiki is manually edited and I really hope it will NOT be updated.
Why should it? We should really stop manually editing those Wiki pages
because in contrary what people keep on telling you about Wikis: It just
is outdated. The tasks pages of the Blends web sentinel[1] will be
updated once a day and they contain all needed information about the
packages and are contain really the latest information. So if anybody
is willing to spend some time on the Wiki: Please remove any references
to certain packages if there is no special reason to keep a certain
reference. Last week I visited the Wiki and even found references to
cdd.alioth.debian.org on pages which are linked from
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianScience
So if anybody would take some time to replace this by
blends.alioth.debian.org - this would be really helpful. Is there any
way to grep / sed the content of the Wiki pages somehow? I do not
really want to propose this method because when seeking for those broken
links the page itself can be updated according to the suggestion I have
given above.

I'm really happy if we are able even more upstream developer into Debian
Science because they are ba definition the most competent people to test
those packages.
Kind regards
