        Sure - also; I believe Intel has a chunk of (currently) internal OO.o
documentation in MediaWiki format that it'd be good to merge in as well.

        Of course - there is a lot to say from every side here & a potentially
vast & inconclusive flamewar; having used both - I'm pleased with
MediaWiki, and rather annoyed at the huge slew of mess that Twiki seems
to create by default [ broken & unpleasant per-user pages, inclusion of
lots of docs in-system etc. ]. Plus the editing interface & markup style
seems to suck harder in Twiki - but, most likely I'm just biased.

        Mike Leibowitz is (kindly) administering go-oo.org's currently, but
neither of us are really concerned about holding onto that I guess -
whatever is easiest / most-helpful for you is best I think.

        Of course - wrt. content admin - I'd hope we can have little ~no
official editorial oversight - beyond focusing it on developer content &
just let it evolve.

        Migrating the existing content is ~easy enough; and I can volenteer
some typing action there; I'd suggest simple cut/paste of the existing
developer content with some (manual?) re-formatting.

        Also - there are some things (suck as the Twiki user-name mapping page)
where we could benefit from simply importing the existing
http://go-oo.org/name-account.html page instead of persisting with that.

        Anyhow - IMHO the goal of a single wiki page is an encouraging step
towards working more closely together which would be great.

        HTH,

                Michael.
