Hi Sean. See also [[m:Wikifamily]] and its siblings for a more
general concept for a
genealogy project. For the devs: would it be possible to try setting
up another db for
testing this project idea out? There seem to be a number of
interested parties. It
could start out as a normal wiki -- with sean's layout ideas
implemented as crude
templates -- and as a place to gather gen. information and discuss how
that project
could develop in more detail.
