Future will show.  I have no intent to ban non-FriCAS content.
However while I plan to add and update information about FriCAS
I can not afford time and effort to handle other forks equally.
I am against supressing information for reasons of
"political correctness": if a bug is fixed or new feature is
present in FriCAS I am going to say this.  If new thing
appears in for example OpenAxiom then probably I will not
add info about it, but I have nothing against somebody else
adding such info.

Also, a lot of info in wiki is obsolete.  It makes sense to
delete such information or delegate it to pages explicitly
marked "Obsolete".  This may add (possibly strong) pro-FriCAS
bias in updated pages.

To put this differently: I want the wiki to work well as FriCAS
wiki.  I do not want to discriminate against other forks, but
I am not sure how comfortable they will feel on the new site.
