I think this is a good idea, as I mentioned in my Advogato diary. Well, =
I =
mentioned a 4Suite wiki there, but I also like the idea of a general =
Python/XML processing Wiki.
One of my tasks this evening is to install and get familiar with MoinMoin=

the path towards this. You could probably tread this path much more quic=
kly =
than I could. Why wait for an authoritative location at python.org? I t=
hink =
it shuld not matter where the wiki is hosted as long as the various proje=
ct =
pages refer to it.
