we better keep our paid developer happy, I've spoken to payroll, they
said they can increase your current paycheck of 0 by 25% due to the
fiscally responsible budget we've held to these past few years ;-)

I dislike it when sites just look too much like a kit, seen alot of
wordpress, joomla and drupal setups this way (never seen a site use a
wiki as a frontend yet) our current site isn't as kit-ish to me,
that's my only real concern.

(I find this funny, a few months ago, everyone said the wiki was only
accessible on wiki.opennic.glue, and that's what everyone seemed to
favor, then I pointed at google's results for ".p2p opennic"  and the
wiki was the top result at wiki.opennicproject.org, and
www.opennicproject.org's link to the wiki is still wiki.opennic.glue,
and we're wanting the whole site as a wiki, seems to be some mixed
wiring on that)

if we can keep a look like our current site, and lock it down some, I'm for 
it.
