great list, thanks - i've added this as [[wiki/wiki-cleanup-list]]
and hope to start reducing it.

I was hoping there'd be more activity while I was away, but nevermind - 
hopefully 
the best way to promote more activity is to make some myself :)

I actually would like to eventually get rid of the "wiki front
page" entirely, and have the whole site be more integrated from
the real homepage.  That will take some work, and will probably
involve several other category front pages (like Ideas/) etc too,
many of which can hopefully be autogenerated..

Sounds good. I don't like savannah at all, and maybe one day we
can also move all that into the wiki (in the way ikiwiki itself
does) or some other better tool if that's not enough - but for the
moment I want to get the wiki qua wiki over the 80/20 line first
before getting more ambitious.  I agree that wishlist type ones
would be a good place to start, and welcome volunteers to tackle
that in  parallel :)
