[Foundation-l] Rodovid.org, family tree wiki, wishes to become a wiki project

[Brian]

This is probably one of the better genealogy wikis I've seen, 
particularly because it supports GEDCOM import, which saves quite a bit 
of time. My main problem is how the software can help people figure out 
that two separate users' family trees are connected at some point; some 
sort of similarity-ranking system needs to be created (if it hasn't 
already) which would instruct users to merge pages that have more than N 
items in common (name, date of birth, location, marriage, children, etc).
