I'd really strongly advise going back and reading the Wiki page on "What
is DataPortability?" http://wiki.dataportability.org/x/HgER

And do feel free to point critics at it as well. Much of the recent
criticism just falls away in the light of that page.

Currently on the wiki frontpage, the "About Us" (http://wiki.dataportability.org/display/dpmain/about) says --

==========
about (Page Not Found)

The page you were trying to reach could not be found: it may have been renamed or moved to another space, or the name you requested
may be incomplete.
==========

While it follows with a few boxed links for read-on's, it doesn't look too good... could someone curating that page help point it to
a more intelligent page, ie., either that http://wiki.dataportability.org/x/HgER page, or replace it with something "else"... :-)

Cheers,
Aaron.

Did that last night, Aaron. But it could use more -- including a
definition of "data portability" apart from the project's mission.
I'm working on that, but if anyone has something they'd like to use,
please add it.
