More Awesome Gemini

[Alan]

I'm not sure if this is a response to your question or a complete tangent so apologies if it is the latter, but I have long thought it would be very helpful to have a centralised wiki for Gemini. Something similar to (but less ambitious than) the excellent ArchWiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/). It could incorporate everything you set out below and more, including tutorials on how to set up common software.

Questions to iron out would include where to host it and who has edit rights, etc.

It might take a while to turn into something good and I don't know if it could be made useful by the time of your presentation, but if others agree that it's a good idea, over time it could turn into a valuable resource for Gemini users old and new.
