What ever you choose, please stay consistent. The point of the FAQ and
the wiki is to make things easier on both the beginner and the mailing
list. A FAQ and multiple wikis will surely complicate matters. If you
choose the old wiki, please disable the new wiki so folks don't begin
using it. If you choose the new wiki, I'll help cut over the old wiki
and then Wei Dai should make the old wiki go away. Otherwise, folks
will use both.

Also keep in mind that SourceForge generally sucks at serving up
content. I'm not sure if there are configuration issues, or if the
servers are overworked an underpaid, or if SourceForge trying to serve
up too many ads, or some combination. If I ever get Wall Street-MBA
wealthy, I'll donate a bunch of hardware to SourceForge so we can
remove one variable from the equation.
