[Discussion] Getting a skip

[Alan R Burns]

It might be a good idea to add a page on the wiki for your projects
with photo and a request for help if needed.
This then makes room for progress updates to show the project has not
been aborted..

the more projects we have on the wiki the more people can see that we
are actually doing heaps and might inspire people to join.

And yes I know there are some people that are anti-web solutions.. you
don't have to do it if you don't want..
