Upayavira Uh, I wasn't really serious here, you know. But I think its good that people do know the benefits of the move... perhaps, as always, good comms around this change will help raise awareness and block any (temporary) negative perceptions relating to smaller details.

We had a situation where we had a JSPWiki that was Cocoon's only. The result of that was, whilst it worked, we didn't have people who were in a position to enhance it. To get access to it, Steven had to give specific access to his own server (which he has generously done for some of us). Now, we are sharing the job of maintaining our wiki with the entire Apache community, which will lead to a far greater range of people able to assist. Also, as the wiki is hosted on Apache hardware, potentially all Apache/Cocoon committers can become involved in its maintenance. Lastly, any changes and enhancements that we make will be available to the whole of Apache (for example the 'must sign in to post anti-spam' approach). So, I hope that this will be a change in direction, but there's no reason why we can't innovate, and lead the whole Apache community in terms of what can be done with a wiki site. As David has said, we can do our own custom configurations on our wiki.
