I think there's a move afoot to move all the wiki space(s) to the

I'm having trouble following the byzantine structure we're building,  
too... SAC = OSGeo SysAdmin Committee or something like that.

If you want to, that would be great. I think it's a matter of

wikibooks.osgeo.org to that instance.
