The DocBook Wiki is back online at its new home.

The DocBook Wiki is back online at its new home: http://wiki.docbook.org/topic/[1]. There’s a redirect in place for the old location (and for http://wiki.docbook.org/, too).

In order to prevent miscreants from scribbling on it, you’ll have to register as a user in order to be able to edit pages. I know that’s not consistent with the “wiki way,” but I really don’t know of any practical alternatives. I swear by all I hold dear that I’ll never use any of the registration information that you provide for any purpose whatsoever, if that helps.

I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to David Cramer, Jaime Davila, Luis Miguel Morillas, Paco Vila, and Dan York for crawling over the staging area and cleaning up all the porn spam. Thanks, guys!


[1]It may be a little slow, but there’s not much I can do about that in the short term. Running a Wiki requires a little more horsepower than just serving static pages.

Comments:

The docbook wiki's redirect seems broken, it keeps adding /topic at the end of the URL until the URL size (or redirect limit) gets triggered.

I got this far after couple of redirects: Location: http://wiki.docbook.org/topic/topic/topic/topic/...

I didn't manage to get to the real page from either of the given urls.
