Hello All,

I just added something to the wiki, and I note how out-of-date it is. We 
should correct this ASAP. I'm frightfully busy today, so I doubt I can 
do much myself. Some of it I need to, per some discussions I had over 
the last 48 hours.

Here is my task list. Yi Hao, if you or someone else wants to get 
started, please take a look:

1. Remove all references to our website, ubuntu.sg. It now refers back 
to the wiki, so that is a circular reference.

2. SFDS 2009 is a past event, and a broken link (because as webmin for 
the FOSA/SFDS sites, I removed that very broken site). So move SFDS 2009 
to past events, and note that "upcoming activities" include planning for 
SFDS 2010. A link for which I will add as soon as I create THAT site! {8->

In the meantime, please make the "Planning for SFDS 2010" a link to a 
separate, new page on the wiki. It is going to fill up with details 
fast, and we need to keep the "landing page" as simple as possible.

As an example, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SingaporeTeam/SFDS2008

3. Said "Planning for SFDS 2010" should start off w/ Heidir task list 
for SFDS2010 planning as found on the mailing list.

In other news, I met w/ Heidir and Billy AM last night. We discussed it, 
and we have decided that between now and SFDS2010, we will stick w/ the 
wiki as our primary online presence. If we see that Team Ubuntu SG is 
really taking off, then after SFDS we will get started on a dedicated, 
more powerful website of our own.

Moinmoin (http://moinmo.in/) is the wiki engine that powers 
wiki.ubuntu.com. It is very powerful and feature-rich, and as you might 
expect, the learning curve is not trivial. Once you begin editing a 
page, links to editing help become visible at the bottom of the page. 
Please do not be afraid to ask me or others for help.

Regards
David
