don't forget that that something like 140% of these people think that Internet access isn't nearly expensive enough, according to Soula Evans from Eircom.

Just a wee idea. I'm sure everyone recalls microsoft's idea of implement hotlinks or whatever they were called. Link that are aoutomaticly created.

Well in this instance I think that could be quite useful. Ie, on the forum people will frequently use acronyms, which are explained in the faq. It would be handy that whenver some write ISP for example, a link is automaticaly created to the ISP explanation. I think that is would be fairly easy to do, but of course, cloud or some other would have to do it....

very nice...

I notice that it's phpWiki ( I'm the perceptive type ) - which is all well and good - but I've got an implementation of ASP Wiki (running off an Access dB) on the server the IOFFL site is set up on... will the database be easily transferable - or convertible?

The Wiki is using MySQL for the backend, and I don't think Access conforms to SQL standards, so a dump won't help. But there is a MySQL import macro there for Access, and if all else fails you could just set up a parser. Let me know what you want.
