I would like to stick with the setup we currently have, meaning:
* stick with one wiki, no additional wikis, not for docu, and sure not for
a sandbox
* I am also fine with the "level of freedom" we currently have on the wiki,
as JP says, the spam is almost nothing, I dont have more then 5 minutes a
week doing gardening.
* can't comment on the licensing issues.

People should be able to have their own pages, as long as it is not just
for testing ( I deleted a few of those last year).
I dont understand what is meant with the "heavy commits"

Kind regards,
Harry
