I saw Jef Allbright raise the possibility of complementing the mailing
list with a wiki.
I saw some folk ask about wikis and a few agree that it was a good
idea.
I saw one person question whether it was the right tool for the job and
I thought that Jef answered well that good question by saying it would
complement not substitute the existing ExI list.
I saw Lee Daniel Crocker say he had some expertise and could set up
a wiki and he offered too if there was sufficient support for it.
I have heard a few people support it, no one directly oppose it, and so
what stands out in my mind are two questions.
1) Are there any practical and logistical problems that the ExI Board or
any one else is aware of that would stop a wiki being implemented
in a complementary fashion to the ExI list as Jef suggested?
2) How much will it cost to set up and maintain? If Lee Daniel
Crocker is willing to contribute some of his time and expertise that's
great. But I don't think he should have to bear all the burden for
something I'd certainly like to see and at least a few others seem
interested at least interested in as well.
If someone (maybe Lee? who might know what's involved) could put
together a rough costed plan AND there are no substantial reasons for
opposing the proposal then my third question would become where
do I send money to help cover the costs?
