In the case of Smolt, I want Pavel sending patches to me instead of just pushing them. The only reason is because of google requirements. That's why you probably haven't seen his application to be a member of hgsmolt.

Personally I think that the students/mentees will need access to the wiki at some point or another. That can definitely count as a second group. I've made it a point for my mentee to have a biography on the wiki, and with the new wiki, it has it's own group in FAS. To actually put a blog on Planet Fedora, the mentees need to follow the instructions seth posted a few days ago.

I made most of these changes tonight on publictest2. There were two exceptions. I did not change the 'display_errors' as it is useful for the testing going on. 'open_basedir' is causing issues with the user's page (i.e. clicking the jeffreyt link at the top of the page), when it is enabled it just goes to a blank page. The same happens with the Infrastructure page as well. Everything else seemed to work well with it enabled. I will play with that on a vanilla install at home and see what is up with that. Everything else has been modified. If something has broken and I missed it, feel free to ping me (iWolf) on IRC. If I am not around you can grab the original php.ini file from my home directory under the php-sec directory. Just copy it to /etc/php.ini and bounce apache and you will be back to the way it was before I made the changes. Please let me know if you need to do that though, so I can look at it further.

The wiki is such a critical piece of Fedora's infrastructure we want to make sure that after the migration it and everyone gets up to speed as quickly as possible. Happy wiki-ing! Answering on this list because it just seems more appropriate: Assuming I should be editing at http://fp.o/wikinew/ (which I got from #fedora-admin and didn't find in the announcement mail -maybe worth a follow-up?); On the Main_Page (or any other page -that does not yet exist?-), the link to "edit this page" links to: http://app1.fedora.phx.redhat.com/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=edit The Edit link on top of existing pages goes well though.
