[Jerome Duriez <duriez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

(The debate went over - a very good thing !! - since yesterday when I 
tried unfortunately to send this mail. I re-try almost to see if I 
succeed in sending a mail to Yade-users...)

I fully agreed with a previous remark of Bruno complaining that it was 
very difficult to find anything on the current site. I do not know 
either this is due to the use of wikia, or if wikidot could be better, 
but if this is the case, I think using a second wiki is a very good idea !
