Yeah, I realized the Web interface was basically useless a while ago.
But, its not all that useful if I can't write spec files anyhow. The
wiki so often is missing stuff or its inaccurate or out of date that I
don't even look at it anymore unless the link is recommended to me. I
would happily fix things if there was an editor, but as it stands I
don't know the markup for the wiki and the ability to export to
MediaWiki in LibreOffice doesn't actually work.
