So good to hear that revamping the site will be a priority going forward. I'm happy to help in any way that I can. I agree with Lasse that the wiki has an important place as a living document, and that a whole lot of VCL snippets and varnish tricks are ending up on Other Peoples Blogsā¢ because the trac wiki has been broken (by spammers). It may be useful in the future to give someone the wiki-admin-hat so they can mark out-of-date content, avoiding the old issue of vcl snippets for Varnish 2.0 still floating about. That being said, getting a nicer ticketing system would be super sweet and the old ticket system is definitely the first thing to deserve a bullet. cheers, 0K _______________________________________________ varnish-dev mailing list varnish-dev@varnish-cache.org https://www.varnish-cache.org/lists/mailman/listinfo/varnish-dev
