Hi Dimitry,

thanks for this notice. I was not aware of the problem.
Regarding sf: I've already asked them whether or not it is possible to install 
its own extensions or local settings, and they responded that it is not 
possible at all. See
https://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?func=detail&aid=2315773&group_id=1&atid=200001
so, should I move the wiki nontheless?

Regards, Chris
