The Python Wiki (http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/moinmoin) is now open. I believe it is working very well. I wonder if it can be used to give most SIGs a more usable home on the web. Currently each SIG has a static home page, but since most SIG owners don't have webmaster permission on python.org, making changes to the SIG home pages is a pain. Moving the SIG homepages to the Wiki would solve this problem: the SIG members can maintain their own SIG site. Since the SIG home pages (e.g. python.org/sigs/meta-sig/) are used as well-known URLs to point to the SIGs, I propose to keep these pages around, but make them very simple: a link to the mailing list, a link to the list archives, a link to the Wiki, and that's it. AFAIK The Wiki doesn't have a hierarchical namespace, but I expect that's an advantage rather than a disadvantage -- accidental crosslinks can provide useful synchronicity.
