 I can try to install mediawiki this week (don't expect a problem,
 the server is running centos linux  it's packaged) and then I'll
 ask Sven for the backups.

I got the backups from Sven and tried restoring them at Easter,
using the version of mediawiki that was running before,
and ran into problems restoring the SQL dump, but at that
point I'd already spent a day on it. I do have the wiki
running, but it doesn't see the data.

I hope to have another day for it next weekend. Anyone with
postgresql and mediawiki experience is welcome to contact me
to help it go faster!

Like you :-) I'm too busy right now, although I can provide server
space. I'm not willing to host a wiki unless there are active anti-spam
measures in place (same as for blogs) but otherwise it's fine.

close.

There are (I think) 4 accounts up to now, 3 for UI team members and
an administrator (Sven up to now).

a new account is added (by admin) only when the admin and I agree.

but maybe Liam had more sneaky modes of spam in mind.

As pointed out, spam shouldn't be a problem since the Wiki has a closed
(and small) group of users and is not publicly editable.

I'd prefer to have the Wiki hosted by someone who has been sticking
around the GIMP project for a while. Someone who we all know as
thrust-worthy. Please pick one of the volunteers and let me know who
should receive the URL of the backup.

I would be happy if Liam could host it.
he seems to have the most direct control over his server.

I do find it important that the DNS is also updated then.
there is loads of linkage to gui.gimp.org and deep into

No, that would be fine.

Someone ran a blog on my system that allowed open comments, and
quickly got up to over 40,000 spam comments on each posting...

Oh well, the versions don't much badly and the current setup doesn't

Well, actually what happened is that I told you several months ago that
I can't keep the site running for much longer. I tried to keep it up and
running nevertheless, fixing things and restarting the server when
necessary. But this time the effort to bring it up again is just too
much for me. I am sorry.

 yes, I do agree to getting gui.gimp.org (as-is, and under that address)

I should have a bit of free capacity on my virtual server aswell.
since it looked to be a very simple mediawiki, it shoudnt require
much. Downgrading the database if dump is from a newer version can be
a bit of a pain tho.
