Hi,

Apparently I wasn't clear on the naming aspects of reports so I'll
attempt to clarify that here.

Status reports should be date based but we didn't specify exactly how
in Dallas.

So they can be a running summary like this:
https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/KernelConsolidation/WeeklyReportPast
   or they can be wiki date based like this:

https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Infrastructure/Status/2011-01-19

Kiko & I both (and at least some of the TLs) would prefer to have the
second option.  Logically then you just need to add a #redirect into
the "/WeeklyReport" to the current report.  Currently the tools and
procedures I know of do not do any fancy scripting on the page so a
redirect should work just fine (and it's less work).

The syntax for a redirect is simple  #redirect somepagename     See
https://wiki.linaro.org/HelpOnProcessingInstructions for more
information.

So for example:

https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Infrastructure/WeeklyReport  will
have as it's contents  "#redirect
Platform/Infrastructure/Status/2011-01-19"      This week you'd create
2011-01-26 and edit the weeklyreport page to adjust the date.  If you
get stuck with the redirect because it redirects you too fast then you
can bookmark that page and add "?action=edit" after it. So the
bookmark would be
"https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Infrastructure/WeeklyReport?action=edit";.
