Status quo of Mercurial wiki

> Quite interesting to know that the wiki is broken that much.

It was not my intention to offend you; and this is also not what I said; I did not say that it was broken; I said, that there was a lot of information but not very accessible, duplicated information,... In my opinion it was not very well organised. That is not to say, that the provided information was bad as such.

I think, that you did an important work in the past, and I do not understand why it should not be possible to see the strenghts in both systems:

The new website has in my opinion a MUCH better appearance then the old one. Particularly for beginners and people who do not know Mercurial. The previous one was more hackers-paradise (from the appearance) but not very attractive to newbies, I believe.

I see no reason for exaggeration.

So why not leave the new design and website for general information, downloads, the guide; and add the "old" wiki for more specialised information, stripped from documents for starters.
