Tom's offer is very much appreciated. My previous reply was along the lines
that we'd had so little wiki-ish authoring activity (aside from the
spammers) that I doubting the conversion was worth the effort and cost, was
wondering if we'd have a better fit moving to a Content Management System
(such as the minimalist WEBDAV that pm.org supplies -- that Jerrad and I
used on Advent 2.0 -- or something fancier, hopefully Perl based, maybe
runnable where our wiki is now (Quinlan's)).

For FAQ/contact pages and a monthly calender update we don't need much --
and only the few who actually do the editing need write access. That's all
that's really happening now.

I would like comment on those requirements -- do we need a wiki ? if so,
what is who going to do with it that they haven't lately ?
