[topicmapmail] Request for Participation in Topic Maps Wiki Project

Hi Markus,

Thanks for your mail and for claiming the Sisyphus-role. ;)

While I cannot fund hardware, money etc. I'd like to provide content,
moderate / edit content (i.e. removal of spam, review content etc.) if
it helps.

I can 'contribute' the old easytopicmaps.com content (I have a
database dump). I can also review the easytopicmaps database and
filter which topics are still of interest / which links work etc. If
we know which Wiki engine we use, I can try to provide a script that
imports the content into the new wiki.

Best regards,
Lars
