Description Andrew Overholt

We've had at least one occasion where it would have been easy for someone to fix a typo on a project page but it was in CVS so they couldn't:

How do people feel about using wiki pages instead of the existing PHP/HTML in CVS?

Our website will be moving to git in the near future.  Will this ease things or should we still move to using MediaWiki-driven pages?  And should they be snapshots created with WikiText or pure wiki pages?

Nothing happened for years and we have the more important information (aka User guides) in wiki. As the info still in git is pretty limited I'm closing this bug.
