I have been following gentoo-wiki's new procedures and rebuild process |
22 |
and I think they are on a good track right now. |

I am throwing this out there, can we ask Mike Valstar for a dump of all |
25 |
his stuff, slap it on gentoo hardware under a wiki.gentoo.org link? It |
26 |
could be a "community building" experience and offering the stability of |
27 |
gentoo hardware to a service like gentoo-wiki. Maybe also invite Mike to |
28 |
be the admin of said hardware, etc. Thoughts? |

(I don't know what a community wiki would require for infra hardware, |
31 |
maybe someone will chime in) |
