How is the one we already have, not perfect?

It's nice, but it will need to evolve, since software also evolves.

I don't know if it is just me, but isn't a wiki the worst case scenario for this
site? It is a link collection, and most, if not all, of the software in the links
already have websites of their own to some extent. A wiki, and this one
seems to be no exception, lacks a clear navigational structure, or at least overview. The basic questions that need to be answered are:

1. Where am I?
2. Where can I go?
3. How can I get back?

and in a wiki those questions are harder to answer than in a regular menudriven
website. And first and foremost, most wikis are fairly ugly. ;)
Mm - I have to agree on this one unfortunately! I have been at a fair number of wikis, and they always seem confusing to me - and ugly. Despite the good effort my personal impression is th the original site is much more intuitive. But I guess that is just a matter of changing the lay out of the site since the database is in place. My advice would be: tune down the wiki aspect. Make the software list right there in your face when you arrive.

Just my 0.2 kr.
