The situation is different with the wiki where people seem to have lost interest to add new information and maintain existing information, if we decide to create a community maintained wiki we will check with Logitech if it's possible to get the wiki database to make the transition a bit easier. I'm not sure they will go for it but possibly there is a chance if they can see that they can reduce some costs by shutting down wiki.slimdevices.com after the transition. As I mentioned in the other thread I've acquired a few potential domain names we could use instead of slimdevices.com: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?97718-Interest-for-community-maintained-music-streaming-wiki&p=732518#post732518 erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97869 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Do we need an updated wiki ?
Since the other thread I posted about a community maintained wiki got pretty small interest, I thought I'd try posting a poll instead to see if it's possible to find out a bit more about the interest. The reason for the poll is that I've recently realized that we barely maintain and update the wiki at http://wiki.slimdevices.com anymore. For me personally, one reason to not spend significant time to update information at http://wiki.slimdevices.com is that it's hosted by Logitech and I'm a bit afraid that one day sometime in the future they will just shut it down and all data would be lost. However, the problem this causes me is that I'm starting to have a hard time to find certain information because it's now spread in many different forum threads and it's not always that easy to find which one that's most accurate. The other thread was this one: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?97718-Interest-for-community-maintained-music-streaming-wiki erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97869 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
