I don't get it.

We should do the wiki.

Are you --

1. Somehow of the opinion that one precludes the other?
OR
2. Are you just saying you have no interest in helping with any non-wiki 
GCCNews (but others, of course, are free to)?
OR
3. You don't want the NewsBruiser GCCNews to even exist, but don't want 
to say why?

Thank you for the URL.


It may be, that no interest in http://gccnews.chatta.us will exist. 
Basically, the cost is the 600 MB/month bandwidth use, which even I can 
afford.

Unless better reasons are given, or I come to believe the community 
wishes it gone, the existing GCCNews will continue for some time.

I also tend to explore what I can do in that direction on the wiki front.
