Hey there, hope your weekend (or is it a Friday for you?) is going well.

I've been watching some Australian motor sport today (Bathurst 1000) which runs across several days. Today there was some racing but the top 10 shootout stuff was called off due to rain. I think the main race should run OK tomorrow.

Anywhoo just a heads up that I am playing with fsxnet.nz at the moment, I figured it needed some more love so have opted to blow up the static site I had and swap it out with a wiki to serve up the content.

I figure I can work to migrate content from wiki.fsxnet.nz that still is valid across to the fsxnet.nz site over time. I also think by using a wiki as the basis for the site I can work to slowly add other helpful info in a structured way that will help people set up their BBS, learn about other BBS software etc. etc.

I'm just starting to play with finding ways to copy over files from the infopack like systems.txt to see if I can get them to display as a page on the wiki. I figure asides the issues with things not looking so great when you display a txt file in a mobile view it should at least allow for more people using the website to discover BBS that are part of fsxNet and see the updates in history.txt etc.

Perhaps there are better ways to do things, any suggestions welcome. I am going to cross post this in fsx_gen and fsx_net but if you have feedback etc. please take it to fsx_gen

Thanks :)
