Dear users and developers,

due to maintenance difficulties of our current Wiki (openjump.org) but also with the aim to release Jon Aquino from his duties we decided to move the Wiki.

The question is where to host it? That is, we need a service, as we have no servers for hosting [not sure if OSGEO can help here]. So if you have suggestions, then please let us know! (I know there was a discussion a while ago on that topic, with respect to Google-sites.)

Ideally the new Wiki should fulfill these requirements:

. editing for every person who wants to edit (i.e. at least the people registered to our mail lists should be allowed to edit) . some type of spam-filter [e.g. a captcha], so that we avoid/identify bad edits
. it should allow to pull a backup
. we should be able to delete single, unwanted, very old pages (this is a problem right now, as the backup is currently 715MB large!)

Any suggestions?

As a fall-back strategy we may use possibility to add pages on the OpenJUMP-users Google group, use Google Sites, or use the Wiki that comes with our SourceForge account (i.e. the account we use for code and project management, but this wiki )

best regards
Stefan

PS: Sunburned: I think you already did a test with Google Sites. Can you check if one can add a Google-group to the list of people for editing?
