Our aims are pretty low, call it preventive maintenance. I think someone called it a clean up? Not that it's a mess, just most of us don't know where anything is, so more like a discovery process. This is what I know: http://wlug.org.nz/DevEnvironment I've found the repo so I'm happy, I'll go play :) Cheers, John On Wed, Mar 3, 2010 at 11:32 AM, Matt Brown <matt(a)mattb.net.nz> wrote:

Hi Matt,
Some of us on the committee have talked about testing an upgrade of the wiki in our backup server (tarua.wlug.org.nz). We have Lenny installed there now, (maybe we should upgrade to squeeze first since it will be stable theoretically soon) and would like to have a go at upgrading to a new stack, postgres 8.4/9, php5 ect...
Why? are there problems with the current setup?
John M pointed me to the svn repo, but I just found this page:
http://www.wlug.org.nz/WlugWikiPatches
That was last edited about 4 years ago. I wonder if we should check out the code from svn.wlug.org.nz or look at getting code from wherever phpwiki is at now, and look at adding back in any customizations? Anyhow any advice is appreciated, btw if anyone else wants to help, please let the committee know.
PHPwiki hasn't changed much in the past 4 years. It's essentially dead/in maintenance mode upstream.
We did put some effort into pushing our patches upstream, but given that there isn't much activity there it wasn't a very worthwhile effort.
So depending on what your aims are with this you may be disappointed. You're unlikely to get any useful new features.
The svn repo is of course available and you're free to play ;)
Cheers
