 I for one, think a Perl6-users wiki would be extremely useful, I'm
 just not sure why a site that distinguishes itself as a portal for
 the Australian and New Zealand Perl community makes the most sense

I was only thinking of the availability of an existing Perl 6 Wiki, not the
site as such.

 (particularly to anyone trying to find the Perl6-users wiki from
 outside this mailing list).

My guess is that that's a pretty much location-independent problem, unless
(for examples), (1) you get perl.org to host a Perl 6 users wiki, (2) you
get perl.org and allied sites to put a prominent link to it on their main
Perl 6 pages, and so on.

 Okay, New Zealand and Australia have parrots but the connection is a
 stretch. Isn't Larry and/or Damian from Australia? Maybe that's the
 connection?

The only connection was that it turned up fairly high on the list when I
googled for perl6 and wiki. 

(However: Damian Conway holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science and is an
Honorary Associate Professor with the School of Computer
Science and Software Engineering at Monash University,
Melbourne, Australia.)

 I'm just askin'... 

HTH

 Perl 6 Wiki: (http://perl.net.au/wiki/Perl_6).

That's a nice page, and Mediawiki is a nice wiki. But I'd really prefer
a wiki written in Perl 6, because it's about time we started to show
off. Serving important information with PHP is possible, but there will
be people who will interpret that meta-info.

Besides that, the page is kind of slow... But that could be temporary.

G'day Conrad and P6ers,

My apology for this being a very brief note.  I'm on an interstate training
assignment until the end of the week, and I'm scrounging net access where I
can.

to make it happen.

All the very best,
