I don't mind. At the very least, I ought to link to it from mulgara.org.

If you want anything at mulgara.org (such a mercurial), then just let me know.

Well, that makes it more like a wiki, right? The main problem with the
wiki is trying to organize all that data that is added in an ad hoc
manner. The main advantage is that it's easy to edit. But the only
feature that *really* counts is people willing to do something with
it, and since you've been putting the effort in, then I'm happy to
work with you there.
