Dear Tunespeople,

are there people here with some energy for maintaining the Tunes
project? The Wiki is in a sorry state, and needs to be redone.

Two solutions:
(1) someone steps up to maintain cliki -- merge the latest
araneida/cliki sources, add some proper spam control, remove the ugly
low-level access control. (Maybe contact kiwi authors and use that
instead < http://wiki.alu.org/Kiwi >)
(2) someone steps up to migrate things to mediawiki. water did that
for the slate wiki, and he is quite pleased with it. Mediawiki can
also serve as the host for the more "static" content of the tunes
site.

Is there a volunteer for (2), or at least for (1)? If not, I'll do it,
but it might take more time.

A few hints for (2):
