Hi. We need a volunteer urgently, who are willing to to maintain our wiki.o.o site. We have apart from me 4 persons that have access to the vm, and are capable of doing the maintenance and a bigger number of sys-adm who can do layout changes.
We have a cleaned/documented installation of mwiki, where all our changed are in svn. The work needed it is: - to make mwiki upgrades when available (especially security upgrades) Today this is easy, because no changes have been made to mwiki itself. - keep an eye open for spam on the site (look at new users etc) and block these - locate lost users in the mysql. The challenge is: - Prepare a new design, that then should be discussed on this list - cleanup the page structure - remove/archive (depending on pending decision on this list) old pages. and do it in a way that satisfies the community by discussing it before its done and be prepared to change it afterward- I have done maintenance for about a year now, but never wanted to touch the look and feel of mwiki because I know how sensitive such changes are. The continued discussion on "contact information"; just goes to show that I dont have the feel, passion or nerves to do that kind of work. As of this point in time, I retire from maintaining wiki.o.o, I will gladly help anybody who steps up to the challenge (show directories etc). Since I am also a infra committer I will continue to keep and eye open for technical issues (httpd, the vm itself). thanks for all the kinds words I have received throughout the period, and the trust the community have shown me. rgds jan I.
