This is a good idea that has been proposed a number of times. It hasn't
been acted on before due to limited spare cycles and competition for
other needs like the server move and upgrade. Personally I also have
some reservations, 1) I've never set up or managed a wiki before and
2) the presence of content officially hosted at wiki.openssl.org would
imply endorsement by the OpenSSL team. Frankly there is some very
misleading OpenSSL related documentation and commentary floating
around the Internet, and the only thing worse than no documentation is
bad documentation. I know my colleagues and I may not be able to give
the wiki the attention it needs to always be completely current and
accurate.

But, that shouldn't be an excuse for doing nothing. So I propose to set
up a wiki at the OSF web site, http://wiki.opensslfoundation.com/ as an
initial attempt and experiment. If that turns out well we'll move it to
wiki.openssl.org later.

Based on some preliminary research and input we're looking at
MediaWiki. Give us a few days to get that stood up and I'll make an
announcement when we think it's more or less ready.
