Please provide a few concrete examples of the thousands of pages that will need to be reworked. What features of MediaWiki are required and what is the purpose. Give me some of the gory details. > The short of it is..

The bar is much higher to add to Apache Infrastructure. It must be proven to Infrastructure that we have enough volunteers that can administer the service. Confluence is already present, as is the Apache CMS. We have individuals with scripting abilities. If the wiki re-work is mechanical then we can script it.
