I think this is a great idea, but a few questions:

What's the backup situation like on empegwiki.org? Is that a name you registered and own and are paying hosting for? Just want to make sure before devoting some time towards this. Colocated, I'm guessing? Bandwidth caps or any other surprises? Tom and empegbbs.com have been top notch, he has definately been on top of things the whole time I've been around.

If empegwiki.org gets populated with all the content from riocar.org and stays up to date with volunteer contributors, I don't see a big need for the current riocar.org site, and it could be converted over to the wiki software easily, I'd guess. Why not just run the wiki software on the riocar.org site instead? Or, if Tom doesn't want to bother maintaining both the BBS and the riocar.org site, move the FAQ (if this is what Tony wishes) and all content off of riocar.org and just have two places - empegbbs.com and empegwiki.org. I would only support this though if the site is more or less permanant and backed up frequently.

Let's see what Tony has to say about this, also.
