Evidently, putting up a wiki in MoinMoin was a bad idea, as anti-spam is next to useless and it would probably not be very beneficial to prevent people documenting from creating new pages.

So, to sanitise the current situation but still be open to anyone wishing to contribute to the documentation of GDC, I propose we should put the wiki into Ddoc format and host it on github.

Who's up for the challenge?  :-)

Thanks
Iain.

Separate repo or part of the GDC source tree?

Why not just use wiki.dlang.org?

Hey, no excuses.  LDC is MUCH quicker to compile than GDC is ;-)

And 5 hours later, it is still compiling. :-)
