Re: [Netsukuku-site] website update

[Ruben Dias]

Greetings.

I've been following this list for a while now, and I really believe I can 
contribute something to netsukuku as a whole. Since there has not
been much discussion about what to use, I would then say we go with wordpress 
(after all, it's already in place), and move on forward from there. It might 
not be perfect; but I believe it can work, at least for now.

That's why, I would like to start working on it as soon as possible.
