[axxs-sysadmin] donations update and lunchtime rant

[andy nicholson]

We have a mediawiki installed on the engagemedia.org server, under the
transmission.cc banner. wiki.transmission.cc
I can get it setup with a new virtual host , using wiki.axxs.org
this is still serverbeach, but a different box.

?
