I probably should elaborate a bit. It doesn't take any other tools than a browser to transfer the old pages. You'll just need to create an account on http://live.gnome.org/UserPreferences, and then you can login and start editing pages right in the browser. The Wiki formatting used is simple and described in the page and more extensively behind links. I'd prefer if we at first transfer the pages pretty much as they are, just updating to use Wiki formatting where possible. Beware that while the GUI mode can be helpful, it sometimes thinks it can do more than is actually possible with the Wiki syntax. The DiaDocumentation pages should serve as an example of how to transfer a page -- we don't need to keep the exact formatting, but all of the text and links in a readable manner should be retained, even if somewhat outdated. We can update them later. There are links at the bottom of the Wiki pages to empty pages corresponding to the pages on the old site (http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia). If you've been wanting to do something for Dia, or just on a lark want to help, feel free to go in and Wiki! -Lars _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/faq.html Main page at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia
