Re: [Tiki-devel] Tiki Directory feature

Thanks all, it's already listed here

    https://dev.tiki.org/endangered-features#Medium_term

I guess it should be bumped up the queue a bit? (and that page needs reviewing generally, actually...)

Just now I started at the top of the "browse directory" page to check again just out of curiosity since  you brought this up. Only three valid sites in the 10 or so at the top of the list of Tiki sites. No doubt there are new sites to replace the retired ones, but the directory isn't maintained or submitted to just like no one adds sites to Featured Tikis.

It's listed on the Endangered Features page: https://dev.tiki.org/endangered%20features#Medium_term . A directory could be made with a tracker, but actually Tiki's directory works fine, as far as I know. But it's a web directory, and nobody much users those (or even knows what one is) anymore.
