Spreadsheet

- Deprecate Open Source FAQs page
- Deprecate System Requirements page
ACTION: Andrea will look at the Indexing page (ask Mike R.) and move content to docs; deprecate page in wiki
ACTION: Jennifer is still looking at preparing to migrate page & will eventually move content to website
Writing the Book of Evergreen moved under the archive heading
ACTION: Andrea will chat about wiki cleanup at Hack-a-way
Andrea's philosophy of community content loclations:
- If it's something that should be for new/potential users, it should be on the website.
- If it's something that is for current users, but content is relatively static, it should be in the documentation.
- If it's something that is for current users, but content is frequently updated (or updated by many people), it should be on the wiki.
