Hello,

One question is whether a wiki is actually useful nowadays. It looks as though they are less used by actual users, and more prone to spammers than they used to be. So maybe junking it and replacing it with a set of basic web pages is a better answer...

I maintain http://www.pcre.org/ which is just a very thin web page that introduces the project, and then links to the various PCRE documentation pages that are in the source distribution. I typically update it within a few days of when a new release goes out, but otherwise, it changes very rarely.

This was a volunteer effort that wasn't started by Philip; I started it just because I felt that any important open source library should have an introductory page that you can get to by going to a search engine and typing in its name. In this aspect, I think the effort succeeded.

In any case, if the Wiki devolves into a set of static pages (and I agree it seems like there is very little demand for community-editable PCRE documentation), I'm happy to help either put those pages up on www.pcre.org, or give up www.pcre.org and redirect it to the new home. Please let me know how I can help!

Humbly,

Andrew
