Yeah, that's really more your world than mine ;) > Well, I know there are other issues involved, but does it really have to run > on PA;s servers?

I guess I should have been a little more explicit with what I meant. It certainly could run anywhere we'd like to host it, or be one of the hosted wiki's you're talking about. Shouldn't be too hard to get a subdomain pointed somewhere else if we decide to do that. I guess I was just going for "for ease, it would be rad if it could run on our existing hosting situation but it's really not a big deal". > Are you saying that it needs to be written in Ruby?

Again, should have been more specific. What I meant was "I only know about Instiki and i2 in Ruby and they both suck. That pretty much discounts the common Ruby wiki packages (which we should make at least a cursory effort to explore as options since we are, in fact, pdx.rb)." Even if I had meant those things, it's not like I have the authority to enforce any of it :) I just want to get something that works and is easy to deal with. If that means a Rails wiki running at PA, great. If it's just easier to set up a pbwiki, whatever. Just no mediawiki plz ;) Ben _______________________________________________ PDXRuby mailing list [email protected] IRC: #pdx.rb on irc.freenode.net http://lists.pdxruby.org/mailman/listinfo/pdxruby
