[Xitami] New wiki project for Xitami

[R O]

You can send me the files and I will take a look at them. I am not going to discriminate articles, my goal will be to port the entire thing to a database or at least provide the script so that someone else can do it.  However, I will need the database format that you want to use and the table structure....I am assuming there is some kind of pre-existing forum structure this will all be imported into???  If not and you leave it up to me then i will create some custom tables and you will probably get first hand experience at how bad of a coder I am.  :-P
 
I will unzip all the files and see what I can do.
 
Anyone want to help or have input and/or suggestions on this?
