I realize you did qualify your statment, but I thought it should be called out explicitly. I know of dozens of mediawiki sites I use nearly everyday, whereas moin, I know of one. Also, why is mediawiki ok for 108 and et.redhat.com but not for fedora? I would think some type of review/assesment was done for those sites. I am not trying to troll and/or flame, I really am just curious. stahnma _______________________________________________ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list
