Re: [wiki]: Bringing FIRSTwiki back

We do need some people to volunteer to be regular admins, but I think it should be sufficient for someone to check briefly every day or two.

I'm also happy to pay for a domain name. firstwiki.org and first.wiki are taken, so I was thinking about firstrobotics.wiki. Any other suggestions?
Thanks for the generous offer. However, the github solution already exists, and people are making some contributions (though perhaps not quite as many as a MediaWiki implementation would receive). I don't see a good rationale to switch at this time.

I don't personally have time to do a migration, nor do I have the time to check in on the server on a daily basis.
