That sounds reasonable to me. Precluding the alternative choice (below),
as long as it inhibits enthusiastic contributors from wasting their time
making updates to wiki pages, where the updates will disappear, that should
be good.
ATM our Command extension is incompatible with the script’s API
approach. Without the Command pages, the wiki is only half as useful.
Taco is looking for a solution (but rewriting the extension would be too
much).
Mind you, not having looked around, the possibility that someone had
already created some all-singing, all-dancing software for exactly this
situation did occur to me.
There are solutions for balancing MediaWikis (as Wikipedia does it), and
mwoffliner is still the best (remaining) solution for externally
scraping a MediaWiki.
Other scraping solutions, e.g. via wget, are blocked ATM by Anubis.
(AI bots killing servers otherwise.)
Maybe we could allow the IPs of the mirror servers.
Next steps? Who should give blessing (or positive assent or ...) to this?
(Hans? Taco? Wolfgang? ...?)
While it is nice of Hraban to volunteer his server, since (AFAIK) TUG is
slightly more well known than Hraban, perhaps hosting the mirror on TUG
would provide ConTeXt with a bit more (well-deserved) visibility. (Would
it be egregiously redundant to have two mirrors? If not, why not?)
We can have more than one, and I’m free to play with my server…
Hraban
