== Summary ==
The wiki has finished migration to ikiwiki now. There are some issues that
should be sorted out manually on a per-page basis. XDC pages are back up.

After last fortnight's decision to use CC-BY-SA for wiki content, Julien
Cristau reminded us that MIT is better for moving content from the wiki to
official documentation. Vote carried, we'll be using MIT for wiki content.

== Items discussed ==
ITEM: Wiki migration
Wiki migration is complete now and runs on ikiwiki. There are still some
issues with various pages, but these need to be done manually. 
You will need a new account, see here for details:

ACTION: Fixing up the general issues
STATUS: Complete

ITEM: Wiki license: MIT
Julien suggested to use MIT after last week's decision for CC-BY-SA. MIT
allows us to move content from the wiki into documentation without having to
worry about the license.
ACTION: Martin P to add license info to wiki
STATUS: Pending

ITEM: X.Org trademark
The board received an email from a .cn registrar. A company is trying to
register 'similar-sounding' domain names after registering X as a brand
name.
ACTION: Alan C to dig up trademark info, Peter H to contact the registrar
STATUS: Pending
