Hi all,

Derick suggested I post a note here...

PortaWiki (http://www.flamingspork.com/portawiki/) is for collecting,
sharing and collaboration on portability issues that arise during
software development and porting. There are entry points per topic and
per platform.

The idea for this came up at AUUG 2005 in Sydney, originally by Peter
Gutmann (cryptlib). People from MySQL AB and the OpenBSD / OpenSSH
project immediately responded positively, so Stewart Smith set up this
wiki to get things started. Darren Tucker from OpenSSH has been quite
busy adding items since, also.
 
Please contribute what you know/find and help build this essential
resource! Please add your Project/name on the main page under
"Participating Projects" so people can see who is active.


Regards,
Arjen.
