Hello all: Here is my response and bellow its "the Oracle" response
I didn't imply that it was a problem, I made the experiment, and it took me around 1/2 day to finish my experiment, and most of our pages are the press releases: https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Live-demo I think that more than 50% I moved already to trac (with a lot of links fixed, and many more to fix, when everything that is ours goes there) The Code is on: OSGeoLive repo not on OSGeoLive-doc repo So, we have to repos, then 2 wikis? I don't like that idea. I prefer one trac wiki that covers both repos. I find this annoying on Github wiki: you can't add images directly to the wiki, I normally use issues to add the image and then put it in the wiki. This also is annoying: its so narrow. I compare the "looks" of pgRouting wiki with PostGIS wiki and I like postGIS wiki more. https://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki https://github.com/pgRouting/pgRoutingLayer/wiki In any case for GitHub wiki.. probably the need to change the mediawiki to the wiki stylecan be skipped (bakaniko copied/pasted from github wiki to media wiki and had to change format) And the copy/paste still is needed (unless someone knows how to do it automatically) Links have to be fixed, because the implicit links will no longer apply.
