[lubuntu-devel] LXQt wiki area

[Walter Lapchynski]

You seem to be missing the fact that we all agree that MediaWiki is better
than Moin. I don't want two wikis to have to maintain. If we can have
someone else do the work of securing and maintaining our wiki, it's less
for us to deal with. It would be the same for our WordPress site of we let
Canonical host. The issue is not the money, nor is it being against
everything you do. It's about limiting the strain on the entire team.
