Hi,

Exactly what I mean is a bit unclear to me as well. Yes I know wikis are 
project-wide, but perhaps each project could have one repository defined as 
"main repository", by default the first repository created. Then the wiki could 
pull from readme/install in that one. Or perhaps someone has a better idea.

The reason was anyway that people already have written useful stuff in these
install/readme text files, and it would be very nice if that could just be 
rendered on the wiki somehow. Writing these text files in markup formatting 
would make sense in my opinion.

As an example, on github they show the readme content if that file exist in 
each repository view. That's on some level similar to what I was thinking of.

Cheers,
Yngve
