Folks, with all due respect, it cannot fit in my head HOW can you shut down a mean of communication that was used for 5000 people and continues to be used. Don't mention spam, slowness, login pecularities, hosting - these are all minor technical issues, fixable. How can you divert all

Hi Just my 2c: - +1 for moving wiki into redmin if Otto is agreeable - Regarding joomla logins - we dont really encourage community logins / commenting on posts etc on the joomla site so I would not worry about spending time on it (for ldap integration I mean). Ultimately I would like to discard

Hi, I agree, we need a simple infrastructure with only a few applications to maintain. I like the ideas to - move the wiki to redmin - make the forums read only and ask users to post to stack exchange - keep Joomla as it is and migrate to Django in the future. We don't need ldap integration

Marco thinks that the community members who take care of the forum could decide such a change. But it is always possible to send a mail to the PSC list and ask for their view. Since Gary didn't step into the discussion and it's his forum, I would suggest that Anita sends a mail to the PSC list.
