it was sent to imc-docs-tech list.

i'd suggest starting a file called ToDo or similar in the same directory
as the Changelog - non-admins can post their todo items to the list.

i agree.... but maybe we should change the name of the channel to #docs
(although we'd lose the sentimentality of having #twiki)?

well, the update is this:

* the current space is a vserver hosted by mayfirst.org
* there are some thoughts and discussions going on about how to best
organise services - i will send some thoughts to the imc-docs-tech list
over the next few days (if i remember and find time to write it up!)
* the vserver will almost certainly remain as it is. however, it may
move physical host (and, possibly, IP) again.
* i think that https and the longer urls ('bin/view' instead of just
'view' now) can be fixed with apache2 rewrites or redirects or something
- i haven't time to do this, i'm afraid.

feel free to send other questions :)

solidarity,
