Okay, I wrote a wee program in Ruby to get the data from the text files and write them to the database (I'm attempting to learn Ruby so was glad of the chance to write something that actually was of any use ; ). I did that locally and then exported the database to the current live location: http://inkscape.turnipspatch.com/.
So right now everything is ready and could be put onto inkscape.org. I'll either need CVS access or someone willing to set it up that I can send the stuff to. On that note, how are databases dealt with on SourceForge?
If anyone objects to going ahead with this, now would be a good time to speak up.
Personally I prefer the current system, but if this results in others being able to take over posting news, then I guess that's one less thing for me to have to do.

We need to come to a decision on this.
I think it would be a good idea to use WordPress *if* people want and intend to post news with it that wouldn't otherwise post news with the current system. If not then there's not much point using it as Bryce doesn't like it and he's the one who currently does the news.
So I'm really looking for opinions on this -- if you have one please share it.
Regards, Jon
PS. Bryce, out of interest (+ I might be able to do something about it too), what is it you don't like about WordPress, or prefer about the current system?
