I did consider this. I'd like to build it into a neutral portal, but i've
been dragging my feet on this due to real world constraints.

Interesting. Any ideas what is under the hood?

It would seem that pvr.geek.nz has become the place for that already.
Perhaps you could find a way to assist them?

I am all in favour of one wiki to rule them all - ok it will never
happen.

I like the idea of getting behind pvr.geek.nz though, so much so that i
just added a bit about this mailing list (software page) and added its
rss feed as a live bookmark in firefox :-)

point me at the right page with the info

pvr.geek.nz I started just because I could, with originally the
intention of documenting the DVB-S setup, as I was being asked fairly
often about details.

I would welcome others fleshing it out, but equally I am just as happy
if there are other places as well - I have no expectations of
pvr.geek.nz being the one wiki to rule them all :)

Consider it a space to do whatever people think needs to be documented
for NZ.

thank you

you identify an issue relevant to both wikis and this list. I see little
point in diagnosing general myth problems on this list, or documenting
general myth issues on a local wiki. IMHO general issues are better
handled by the main myth mailing list and wiki, as it saves
fragmentation. NZ issues and conditions are more appropriate on the
local resources.

OTOH the main mythtv-users list is very high volume, and sometimes high
noise.

Cheers.

Watch a couple of the demo avi's they have there. It looks awfully
familiar...

Cheers!
