Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2008 09:53:54 +0100 (CET) Hi With the recent events[1] in the TWiki project, I wanted to mention how this may or may not impact us (as we're quite a big user of the twiki software): * twiki is GPL and nothing prevents us from keep on using it as long as we please. * TWiki.net's hostile behaviour against its own (developer) community has made most of us Rockboxers to side with the forked version[2] and we expect to go that route once the dust settles * The old subject of switching to another wiki platform has been brought up but we estimate that there will be a substantial amount of conversion work involved that nobody seems too eager to deal with, even if perhaps MediaWiki or others may have a slightly broader "acceptance" among some users.
