I plan on starting a weekly, possibly biweekly, summary of mailing list traffic. These will be somewhat in the same vein as the Perl5 or Perl6 summaries and will be posted on the blog here and sent to the bioperl-l mail list. Barring another natural disaster here, these ...

Wordpress 2.0.1 installed. Presumably no major differences to be seen but some bug fixes installed.
A Wiki spam filter was installed, we'll see how well it performs but trying to cut down on spammers.
We also will try and setup a RSS feed on the wiki main page so that news ...

I installed the new Regulus theme, comments are welcome as to whether or not you like it.

I also changed the permalink structure so that the links are ...

index.php is no longer part of the wiki URL. Yah!
So http://bioperl.open-bio.org/wiki/Project_priority_list

http://bioperl.open-bio.org/wiki/Special:Interwiki
For example to link to wikipedia you simply need to use the '''wp''' prefix. For example [[wp:Bioinformatics]] ...

I added the Biblio plugin for mediawiki so that we could simplify how papers are referenced in our pages. I found this as part of the wikiomics project.
See the help page and the Bioperl wiki publications page for examples.
