Yeah it's cool that every single bit of USB stuff people know is being put together in one place. I am wondering if this wiki could explain the drastic increase in ASM program quality over the last few years? It has been around for 4 years, but back then it often got hacked or spammed by bots so people avoided it. Now it's solved and it seems to get more popular.

Well, my problem is that I'm not a fan of the link:

http://wikiti.brandonw.net/index.php?title=WikiTI_Home

I think you could have a domain for it only, instead of 'hosting' it in brandonw.net.

Make a poll with it to know what people want :S

The original WikiTI was dying, and BrandonW picked it up and hosted it himself before it completely crashed and burned.

The link to the Wiki front page is http://wikiti.brandonw.net/ , not http://wikiti.brandonw.net/index.php?title=WikiTI_Home . It will change to the last link after typing the first, but still remains the fact you can access it from the shorter link in the first place.
A domain name costs money. It's very cheap, but life problems can happen and he's already paying for other domain names (such as BrandonW.net). If BrandonW ever lost his job for any reason and had extreme financial issues, then bye bye to the two domain names. Plus, the Wiki sub-domain http://wikiti.brandonw.net isn't that bad as a URL. It could have been worse, like http://s221544699.onlinehome.us/djomnisongs/ . I think it is fine where it is, now. At least it's online, that's what counts.

I think you should maybe contribute more to the community instead of always complaining about everything. BrandonW is doing a great job in the community. Maybe offer to buy a domain name yourself for BrandonW?

It is very well hosted under brandonw domain. ;)

I have no idea how much people visit WikiTI except the regulars in the community that visit it occasionally to see updates and update links to their projects.
But I have seen a programmer to create an account in WikiTI for starting develop for a z80.

When I saw a lot of changes in wiki I started to contribute again too recently. I hope it continues. :)
I can write something if it is on my reach if you request it and even better add ideas to http://wikiti.brandonw.net/index.php?title=To_Do_List .

EDIT: don't forget Hackspire is already a good wiki about Nspire. (it has ports documented, some hardware)

I use WikiTI a ton when working on z80 calcs.  A lot of KnightOS comes from WikiTI.

I saw the threads of documentation on programming OSes for z80 and I started the topic in WikiTI. It makes sense to unite everything now in there.
Do you mind to heavily rely on code you posted on forums? I ask mainly for having complete peace of mind but I know you posted for others to use, so it is not an issue in principle. As always I fully acknowledge work of others. ;)

I use a little code posted on it, but I use it mostly for port documentation in KnightOS.

I know it is tiwiki.brandown.net, and that's what I meant to say, sorry.

However, I suggest a free domain, sth like

www.wikiti.co.cc

Want me to get this one and to redirect to wikiti.brandonw.net. Agree?

I still think it's fine as it is now. Anyway if you absolutely want to use a sub-domain, you may have to ask permission to BrandonW first.

I actually prefer wikiti.brandonw.net. I use it every day and it's not like its hard to remember. It's just brandonW's site with wikiti in front of it. I like having brandonw.net instead of co.cc because brandonw.net actually means something, whereas co.cc doesn't.

That's just my opinion, I vote for keeping the original.

Well the issue is that you always criticise everything negatively so when I posted this I was quite pissed. By contributions I mean constructive comments, project updates and tutorials.

I know, i usually 'recommend' (this is the exact word I use) people updates.


Anyways, this is not the thread for that
