Cool.  I remember talking to Jim Salter several years ago, but we never
agreed on what to do next.

So the team that's in charge is wiki-admin@FreeBSD.org.  You can find us
over on #freebsd-wiki on Libera.Chat on IRC, or use the email.

Right now FreeBSD is having a DevSummit so this may not happen for the next
few days.

One thing to note that is (originally) wiki.FreeBSD.org was a developers-on=
ly
wiki.  In the last few years we have also welcomed non-developers.  But it
somewhat remains developer-centric.

So there is overlap but not completely.  IMHO I need to go back to the cont=
ent
of _this_ wiki and think about how best to proceed.
