Thanks Terry
Thanks to everyone for this constructive feedback. I hope that I have
given replies in thread fork where you needed then, but I will up
integrate them and update the document and move forward to complete task
6 in the next couple of days. There are two further points that I would
like to raise for comment / feedback.
(1) This bulk of this page content relates to technical details and
issues, rather than content / branding / licensing, etc.. As I
mentioned in a reply to RobW, I would like to decouple the
infrastructure aspects from the content-relate aspects as much as
practical to keep the momentum on the platform move. I therefore
propose to move the bulk of the infrastructure content into a
supplementary page which focuses on this content.
(2) I will be making the snapshot version accessible to the project,
however:
* I will be overwriting all passwords (except mine and Drew's) thus
disabling existing account use. I will also replace all email
addresses by dummies to prevent existing users resetting their
passwords, and user page-watch information to stop bad emails
being generated.
* Anyone who one who wishes to work on the wiki will need to create
a new account and apply to Drew or myself for temporary elevated
privileges if needed. Just remember that new content will be
blown away at cut-over, so individual new users must use the
standard export functionality prior to cut-over to save it if they
want to restore it post live-transfer.
* As step one removes the private data elements that could be viewed
as falling within the purview of EU data protection legislation,
this means that we could in principle make a copy of this D/B to
any committers for data analysis. All they need is MySQL installed
and 3Gb space the D/B. The data model is pretty straight forward
:-) (*)

(*) a quick example here is that the edit profile is a classic near
log-lin relationship: 33% of edits where made by 10 editors, 73% by 100,
90% by 315. //T
