Hi Atte!

First of all.. thanks for revitalizing this mailinglist:)

Personally I have to say... I pretty much like the way awkiawki is
now. I's minimal but not in a bad way, it has just enough to be a
fully valid wiki.

I wasn't happy with all functionality provided when I got it, but to
that, I found the code base easy to penetrate thanks to its size. And
I could add the stuff I wanted easily.

I think there could be stuff that "everyone" would like to have or
change, but also it would be cool if there was some kind of voting
process before each addition... so the code base doesn't risk bloat...
what do you think?

Best,
Johan
