Hi all - I just wanted to let this group know that WikiCruising, a
community-created cruising guide to all the world's best destinations
is now open and ready for people to start adding articles and content.

Wikicruising is a project to create a free, complete, up-to-date and
reliable destination guide for cruising sailors and powerboaters. We
believe that a community-authored website can provide the most
accurate, up-to-date, reliable and accessible information for current
and aspiring cruisers.

I'm still working on templates and other basic infrastructure, but the
MediaWiki software is very flexible - just go in, start creating pages,
and we can organize it later!

If you want an idea of what this could become - take a look at
WikiTravel (http://www.wikitravel.org)

Hope to see you there...

Despite the fact that your message could (should?) be specified as spam, maybe
you'd better arrange for at least some content in your site before posting to
advertise it. Right now all I get is "You've followed a link to a page that
doesn't exist yet." Nevertheless, good luck with your site.

This could be a good thing.

I tried it.  Search for Gagetown, or some where you know.  If it isn't
there, put in a plug.

What the hay.

It definitely can be a good thing, that's why I wished him good luck with it :-)
However, OP should be careful that his site isn't going to become one big
spambucket. That would be a real shame.
