Matt, Gabriel, and others: I apologize for not writing back sooner. When I received this message, we were in the middle of preparations for Hurricane Ivan. Ivan's winds left us without power for 10 days, so I am just now getting back to normal. First, let me emphasize that DebianWiki is not an official Debian project. Like all things debian.net, it is merely the operation of a single Debian developer, although most of the Wiki work itself is done by the contributors, not by me. As long as DebianWiki remains an unofficial project, I am hesitant to consider any change of codebase or usage. I am certainly willing to entertain private emails that attempt to change my mind, but I don't have a lot of time to devote to changing things around. If the Debian system administrators or the DPL would like to make DebianWiki an official project, I would certainly be willing to assist in that effort. I have very little ego attached to the Wiki, and would be delighted to see it continue to grow -- and move from d.n to d.o, while it's at it. Personally, I like CamelCase; I like traditional Wiki notation; I like Kwiki. However, if the DebianWiki community and Debian membership would like to see the Wiki move in a different direction, I am certainly willing to be in the minority. I do not believe I am subscribed to debian-www, and I appreciate whoever copied me in. Please let me know if anyone would like to lead the charge for "legitimizing" DebianWiki. - Michael -- michael d. ivey [McQ] : "A journey of a thousand miles continues <ivey@gweezlebur.com> : with the second step." http://gweezlebur.com/~ivey/ : -- Larry Wall encrypted email preferred :
