I'm not sure if we can easily "copy" all of the content into wikipedia..
and IMHO that's exactly the point: wikipedia will learn about [linux]
audio software by other means and present it as an encyclopedia entry.
(eg. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ardour_%28audio_processor%29 )
I don't think wikipedia will provide a flexible interface for indexing
and browsing sound applications.. but I'll support any endeavors.

i could not have said it better! cheers Ivica.

I'd like to see the current (3?) wiki approaches to be improved and
merged into http://lau.linuxaudio.org or wiki.linuxaudio.org..
and going to continue the discussion in the wiki thread..
