Friedrich,

Sounds like lots of new and good info is being written for the new
wiki, which is great. I just want to be clear about where this fits in
with our two existing CKAN wikis, because I'm concerned adding a new
one makes it harder for newbies to find stuff.

* http://wiki.okfn.org/ckan - for users of the service and system
* http://ckan.org/wiki - for developers

Now is the former just going to for users of services apart from
ckan.net and the system in general, whilst users of ckan.net use your
new wiki at http://wiki.ckan.net/? If so, will you be moving a bunch
of the pages across to ensure we make this clear? Also, isn't it a bit
difficult to make it clear which wiki to be using?

There is also a wiki page on bitbucket which is enabled - Rufus do you
mind if I disable that and the issue tracking?
https://bitbucket.org/okfn/ckan/wiki

Does anyone see anything wrong with collapsing all these wikis into
one central one at say ckan.org? This could have sub-sections for
ckan.net users etc.
