Wiki for documentation?
Our site has a wiki on it, using the Ewiki Geeklog plugin. I'm really considering removing this because it hasn't been updated in quite a while. I could replace it with a MediaWiki (the software that runs most wikis including Wikipedia) which lots of people are familiar with.
My question is, will some people be willing to help take over a project to document VDrift? The tasks would include: - Copying the FAQ topics on this site to the new wiki site.
- Updating some of the pages.
- Managing the page structure of the site - how different categories are set up, how pages are named, that sort of thing.
- Watching for new edits, deleting any spam.
- Creating new pages.
More than one person could of course take on this task. I ask for volunteers though because I simply don't have time to fill an entire site with content right now. I am happy to set it up and help with content, though, if someone else is willing to take on the role of managing the documentation.
Do I have any takers?

Sorry guys, I've been swapmped with work related stuff unexpectedly <grumble> <freakin_contractors> and haven't been able to even look at this.
With any luck I'll be able to do something this PM... Oh crap, delayed Valentine's night with the Missus... Maybe tomorrow night.

I've added an RSS feed block to the right side bar on the front page of VDrift.net so that it's easy to keep up with recent changes. What do you guys think - is it too long? The limit is 25 entries, I figured I'd make it long to take up space on the underused right side of the home page - most of that space is just blank.
I'm going to tackle the cars and tracks listings next... Maybe tonight.
Do we want to say what each car actually is supposed to be?

Well, I beat you to it...  all I really posted was the directory listing I have for tracks and cars in current SVN. We really do need to add what the cars actually are, in fact it would be nice if we could add an individual page for some of the cars and tracks, telling about the status (where they came from, how far finished they are, how they could be improved, links to resources about them, etc.).
