Was there a special reason to choose exactly this one? Was it dictated by
Borland since it is on their webspace?

Okay then. Thought it would stay there forever in parallel with the new one
;)

Fine. By the way: I am still working to automate the conversion of the whole
PSDK headers as much as possible. I am currently at step 3 of many more
steps to go: the preprocessor macros. It will take me quite some time, but I
am optimistic it's possible. Of course some of the macros will require
review and static conversion into functions. This will also be handled. (I
am using Perl for it, just in case you didn't assume this, yet ;-).

Well, actually I think there should be some "standard". I.e. each project
should have its own website. This should be like a pattern so that visitors
will know the scheme when visiting the next JEDI page.
Of course the design may be different, but it should also stick to standards
(i.e. W3C-standards, readability, usability). I suggest that the
webmaster(s) of the main website take over the task of creating websites for
JEDI projects which feel not capable to do it themselves.

If it's possible, then the better ;)

However, what do you think about the Wiki-idea? Could it be possible,
despite something like the delphipedia idea, to put the main website into a
Wiki?

Cheers,

Oliver

PS: Cool that there are some responses at all.
