Perhaps I am too bold, but I just went ahead and put in a request for the wikia URL
http://bibdesk.wikia.com Wikia is a free wiki hosting domain. Wikia supports the most recent Mediawiki versions. That is unsurprising, given that it was started by Mediawiki's inventor, Jimmy Wales. It looks to me like we would have complete control over the look and feel of the wiki. Many of the wikia wikis have ads on them, but not all, so it seems that we should be free to have a clean look without all the garbage at the top found in the SF.net wiki instances. One applies for a wikia URL. If the staff feels the application merits it, they will grant us that URL at some point. I will keep an eye on the application to see if and when it is approved. If it is approved, then the question I have for the developers and the main wiki folks is: do you want to go ahead and move over there? Feel free to take your time to answer that question. I have no idea how long it will take for the wikia folks to reply to my request. Cheers, Rob On May 13, 2008, at 3:39 PM, Adam R.
