  • I'd like to move away from a MediaWiki interface and set up an independent domain for publicity and general contact purposes; think what the Germans have done. This interface is very good for throwing ideas around and coordination (and we could keep it for that purpose) but not very friendly for the public. I've provisionally pinged a UI guy and a coder for any design work. Thoughts? Ironholds 23:44, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
  • Its important to remember that MW is a very versatile piece of kit. Its just like html or flash, so long as you know what your doing, you can make a site look really good. :) Seddon 12:38, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
