There are some examples of this already under people's user/ dirs http://wiki.netbsd.org/users/haad/porting_zfs/ http://wiki.netbsd.org/users/haad/todo/ http://wiki.netbsd.org/users/dholland/mercurial/ http://wiki.netbsd.org/users/asau/desktop/ other examples seem to be just in the top namespace: http://wiki.netbsd.org/opensoundsystem/ (you might find this one interesting) http://wiki.netbsd.org/konqueror/ or feel free to make a new directory (hacks/ sounds about right :) ) and give it a shot! - a list of PR's, key players, status tracking, maybe we can find/write plugins http://ikiwiki.info/tips/ikiwiki_as_a_requirements_management_tool/ ------ an alternative would be to setup a chili/redmine server, but it would be nice to have these things integrated.
