[okfn-discuss] The Open Knowledge Wiki Manifesto

Mon Aug 18 20:55:10 UTC 2014

HI Tom, I hear you.

There are some upgrades happening to the wordpress infrastructure in the
coming weeks (blogs etc). Once that is done, I will start a wiki upgrade
project. Can you start a page with all the wiki requirements you have?
(aside from getting us on the latest version?)
