Where is this "real software" going to come from? I can't imagine that
software with more functionality than the wiki is going to spring into
existence without a huge investment of time.
I also note that the problem I'm griping about is hardly the fault of
the wiki software --- it's that we set up a naming convention without
sufficient foresight about future conditions. The only thing that
bespoke software might have done differently for us is impose some
perhaps-significantly-higher cost to change the convention.
So even if the software were going to appear for free, I think we have
evidence in hand right here that we don't know enough to write a spec
for it yet. Maybe by 8.6 when we've been through a *full* release cycle
with the commitfest idea, we could spec it right.
regards, tom lane
