So I'm going to start by apologizing in advance if I'm inserting foot in mouth.
At the meeting we discussed that the YAPC Houston Wiki is a little "challenging" to use. A day later, I'm listening to perlcast (http://perlcast.com/2006/11/04/kirsten-jones-on-the-social-text-wiki/) and they (Josh McAdams) had an interview with Kristen Jones from Socialtext. Social text is a perl based wiki that is open source. It's got all the multi-user and priveliges, etc built into it. From what I hear it's designed to have both a non-technical and techy editor to make it easy to use by all. What's better... They offer hosting. I have sent an initial ping to them asking if they'd be interested in hosting http://yapchouston.org/ in exchange for some plugs both on the wiki and maybe at the confrence. Questions: 1. Who currently hosts the wiki and owns the domain (or, who's feet have I just stepped on?) 2. Does anyone have any objections to moving in this direction? 3. I would like to volunteer to help by maintaining the wiki/web content as we move towards the confrence. Any objections Jeremy? _______________________________________________ Houston mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/houston Website: http://houston.pm.org/
