<p>As part of the grand wiki reorganization, I've tried to rationalize
names of wiki pages for dates and release names.<br>
</p>
<p></p>
<p>DATES<br>
I have converted dates to "YYYYMMDD", e.g. 20031201 for 1 Dec 2003.
This allows items to sort nicely and lets people search easily. For
example, someone could search for all the things in November 2003 by
searching for "200311" in the page name.
</p>
<p>Yes, it's hard to read "20031201".&nbsp; If you want to be nice to your
readers, you can make the text of the link something nice like "1 Dec
2003", as in [[DesignIssuesMeeting20031124][the 24 November 2003 Design
Issues Meeting]].&nbsp; I know some of you like to put dashes in your wiki
names, but that means you can't simply copy&amp;paste the URL into a
different wiki page.&nbsp; (Note: you can acheive almost the same effect
with the same or slighly less effort by puting spaces in the link, as
in [[Design Issues Meeting 2003 11 24]].)</p>
<p></p>
<p>RELEASE NOTES<br>
In speech, we have a lot of different names for Chandler releases, e.g.
</p>
<ul>
  <li> Zero point three
  </li>
  <li> Zero dot three
  </li>
  <li> Oh dot three
  </li>
  <li> Oh point three
  </li>
  <li> Dot three
  </li>
  <li> Point three
  </li>
</ul>
This has carried over to the wiki, and made things a little hard to
find on the Wiki directly.&nbsp; For the new wiki, I have rationalized all
the release names to use the "ZeroPointX" format.<br>
<br>
I hope this makes life easier.<br>
