Hi all,
So the discussion regarding the inactive wiki has come up a few times
on the list, as the wiki hosted on 43folders is now somewhat defunct.
I e-mailed Merlin to ask him what his future plans were for the
43folders wiki, and he replied that he had no real future plans other
than that he would take it down at some stage and archive the
content.
Personally, I feel that it would be useful to us to have a working
wiki. Do other people feel the same? I am happy to set one up and
host it if other users and David feel that this would be a valuable
resource.
For myself, nearly every useful thing I do with Remind comes from
reading wikis or other similar information repositories. I'm not a real
programmer, and the "typical solutions" posted by those more experienced
than I am tend to work for me with minimal tweaking. I suspect there are
others like myself, for whom accessible information makes the difference
between Remind being extremely useful vs being a somewhat mystifying
experience. Being able to read the man page is not the same as being
able to read the man page _intelligently_, and with the help of Paul
Pelzl, David Skoll, and several others, I've been able to get at least a
step or two closer to understanding what's going on.
So... (A) thanks to those very helpful people, and (B) a stable,
easy-to-find repository of information is a great idea if it doesn't
cost you more time & money than is comfortable - and thanks to you if
you decide to go ahead.

Thanks
David
