    I think the best solution would be to use the initial show notes in the podcast feed (the same "outline"-style notes that Adam was giving us before) and then use that outline as the start of the wiki page.

Discussions and expanded details (copies of emails, other relevant links not mentioned in the show, etc) can be added to the wiki after the fact - that's where I would see the true benefits of a wiki attached to a podcast.

    great... any progress here? i could really use some rss feeds for any give page in mediawiki... i really debated rolling out mediawiki, esp. for ACL support etc which is better inother wikis... but i thought, common, its mediawiki! to my suprise, rss feed generations sucks. I might just throw up another wiki for that part...

    ill help however i can (testing perhaps docu) if you end up working on something.
