   Be careful what you ask for -- you may get it.

   I've found that running a wiki that allows for anonymous posting invites it 
to be spammed.  [Many try to increase website ratings in search engines.]  
Often times bots are employed to remove all content and replace it with pages 
of links, and the bots often repeat the process every hour.  Logins are 
probably a realistic but undesirable requirement.  I implemented a blocklist 
for IPs and content of posts, but it slows the process of posting to the wiki 
considerably.

   Anyway, if you think a wiki is needed, I have the ability to host it.



   BTW, in my previous post I made a technical error; I used "ramfs" in place 
of "ramdisk" in trying to compare tmpfs and ramdisk.  Sorry about that.
