See 2004.guadec.org/wiki/ -> I'd do the same thing for d.g.o, basically.

Totally.

A lot of this high-level, but fast-changing stuff can live safely on the
wiki. In fact, for things like getting involved and external resources, a
wiki would rock much harder.

Also, I want to get back to putting a tool/tabs bar of all the developer
related sites on each site (ftp, viewcvs, d.g.o, bugzilla, etc), which would
make finding all these resources much easier.

It's definitely a change in approach, but I think it'll be really good for
us. Really glad you're keen for it, makes me want to work harder on getting
l.g.o up and kicking. :-)
