<div class="" id="magicdomid8"><span class="">Hi all -</span></div><div class="" id="magicdomid9"><br></div><div class="" id="magicdomid760"><span class="">tl;dr: Migration of <a href="http://wiki.openstack.org">wiki.openstack.org</a> from </span><span class="">MoinMoin </span><span class="">to Mediawiki commences 12/17. Service will continue with Mediawiki as the wiki engine after 12/21.</span></div>
<div class="" id="magicdomid11"><br></div><div class="" id="magicdomid110"><span class="">While
the MoinMoin engine served its purpose to get started, it makes sense
for us to move to Mediawiki and bring the wiki instances into the CI
umbrella for better maintenance and ongoing work.</span></div><div class="" id="magicdomid13"><br></div><div class="" id="magicdomid14"><span class="">Here's the timeline for this move:</span></div><div class="" id="magicdomid15">
<span class=""> - migration test Monday 12/17 </span></div><div class="" id="magicdomid16"><span class=""> - cleaning up and testing new wiki site 12/18-20 </span></div><div class="" id="magicdomid17"><span class=""> - go-live 12/21</span></div>
<div class="" id="magicdomid18"><br></div><div class="" id="magicdomid729"><span class="">In
the spirit of the hols, we are grateful to Mediawiki's Ryan Lane for
offering to set up a Mediawiki instance for OpenStack projects to use.
The CI team and Ryan have puppetized the infrastructure which
standardizes another tool set in the common CI platform. This move
solves quite a few problems with spam, notification ghosts, tables being
crazy, pages becoming corrupt, and gives us licensed CC-By wiki
content. </span></div><div class="" id="magicdomid728"><br></div><div class="" id="magicdomid758"><span class="">For
some historical background, we never had a true license agreement
assigned to wiki content. (Oh, the shame, says the doc coordinator.) The
wiki footer has indicated Apache 2.0 licensing for all the projects,
and we want to be respectful of all wiki content and indicate a license
more clearly. To this end, we have talked with the OpenStack Foundation
board about licensing all content CC-By, including the wiki, and they
are amenable.</span></div><div class="" id="magicdomid20"><br></div><div class="" id="magicdomid116"><span class="">Your
wiki logins will continue to work through Launchpad IDs. We'll send
another email with a URL for testing and clean up work. </span></div><div class="" id="magicdomid121"><br></div><div class="" id="magicdomid203"><span class="">Any questions? Feel free to ask me, Anne Gentle, or pop into #openstack-infra and ask away. </span></div>
<div class="" id="magicdomid205"><br></div><div class="" id="magicdomid759"><span class="">Proud dwellers of wikistan, </span></div><div class="" id="magicdomid598"><span class="">Anne, Ryan, and the CI team</span></div>
