Radomir has shell access now so perhaps we can ask him to make the Python wiki theme more visually appealing. What roadblocks do people encounter when they want to help garden or reorganize the wiki?

Given that few or none of us seem to (want to) actively contribute to the wiki, I'm afraid python-dev is not the place to ask. Perhaps a call should be issued on c.l.py asking interested people to subscribe to pydotorg (or any other list) and start there?

By the way, I've just looked at the wiki: there are 2 or 3 edits per day. Compared to the size and vitality of the Python user community, this is a ridiculously low number.

Regards

Antoine.
