No, thats one of the reasons why I'd like to move developer - this one is not just on a dedicated apache instance, but a dedicated VM. I don't see any reason why what Greg & Josh are suggesting couldn't work - it's roughly what I had in mind anyway, except that we'd have to use a URL rewrite on developer to get it to redirect requests to wiki, as that hostname is used for other things so hijacking DNS doesn't sound sensible. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK Ltd: http://www.enterprisedb.com PostgreSQL UK 2008 Conference: http://www.postgresql.org.uk -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

The developer's wiki was the developer's wiki until other people noticed
that they had no wiki so they started using the developer's wiki as a
catchall place ("hey, we advocates have nowhere to wiki on; can we use
devel's wiki?"). Now that we have a real wiki it makes sense to create
separate areas on it for each team.
That said, we have links to the developer wiki all over the web.
So +1 on moving the developer's wiki to the other one -- but only if the
original URLs continue to work (redirecting to the new site).
