I don't know, the organisers for 2007 aren't using the wiki. I didn't push the use of the wiki at all. We have a private mailing list. For public discussions we use pd-list. There is no web page yet (and this hasn't been discussed yet, either).

Ahem, some of the organizers believe that there should not be private mailing lists for pd~conf and think that wikis are useful for open community-based organization.

I agree that more is private than what strictly needs to be, but I don't think that it's a case of "should not"...
and think that wikis are useful for open community-based organization.
(A read-only wiki is not a wiki.)
I agree if people can (and do) check which pages were recently updated, else it's not possible to follow the action (especially: getting a list of modified pages by email). I don't recall whether puredata.info does this. Does it?
I'm not really using puredata.info. The reason I recall was that there were too many restrictions (permissions) on edition, but then, I haven't really tried writing on it since 2004. (That might not be the real reason: maybe it's just that I don't like writing on a wiki?)

afaik, nobody ever asked me for more permissions (there was this thread about wikis just recently - but nothing else).
i will not automatically make each and every member of the puredata.info portal to be administrator of the entire site. however, don't see a problem to create a space e.g. in the community section where you (or whoever) is admin and can do what they want.
the good thing with hosting at puredata.info/org,... is, that you get your domain for free: eg pdcon2.puredata.org or whatever you like (as long as it is in puredata.org, puredata.info or pure-data.info) the original idea was also to have convention.puredata.info to point always to the most current convention. this pages could be (imo: should) be subpages of the "big" puredata portal. of course i can also set up an A record that points to any hosts for both pure-data.info and puredata.info; but i cannot do this with puredata.org (i have no control over this domain and i don't know the person who owns it; "*.puredata.org" points to our server, so all services in this domain must go via this host.
