[wiki] policy proposals (fwd)
>From what I can tell, a Tapestry wiki space, using moin moin (my favorite Wiki) is prettymuch free for the asking. Actually, they discussed that a PMC could request Wiki space, but I suspect if we vote to request a wiki space, we'll get one.
Moin moin is a much better wiki than the PHP Wiki that currently exists at SF.net. It is much better performant, has better syntax, and supports easy file uploads (as both inline images and attachements). I've used it succesfully at WebCT for well over a year.
Of course, we would "lose" the content of the SF.net wiki ... it would be necessary to manually move pages from one to the other, updating the content to match the moin moin syntax. I can live with that (my frustration with the PHP wiki has meant that I've added very little to it in the last several months).

Hi gang,
there are a few things left I believe the infrastructure
team should sign-off on or at least be aware of:
* the infrastructure team will assume oversight
responsibility for the oversight of
wiki.apache.org/general.
Makes most sense to me; after all, infrastructure are
already in charge of the oversight on the main website(s).
this 'general' wiki is at the moment empty and intended
to remain mostly empty. It needs to exist basically to
have somewhere to direct wiki.apache.org at.
An alternative would be a seperate "president's committee"
of some kind, or no 'general' wiki but instead some
static pages that live in CVS. Disadvantage of that is
the maintainance inconsistency.
* Wikis at a more granular level (ie, wiki.apache.org/geronimo)
are not a problem, as long as PMCs request it, the oversight
responsibility is clear, and all this happens in good
coordination with the infrastructure team
(I assume lazy consensus can apply, by-the-way :D).
I would also like to know if there's anything in particular
people would like to see done that is not yet mentioned in
the wiki STATUS file (I plan to get most i's dotted and t's
crossed this weekend).
enjoy sinterklaasavond!

I am +1 for this.
Besides the positives, having the docs and discussion at one place makes a
lot of sense. The transfer of the Wiki content would also allow for it to be
updated and made more contemporary where there is need. I would be happy to
help when need arises.
