Thats life - you want to be the first one to use a technology, you pay more and get less. The next version will be always chipper and better. Apple is known to try a higher price on first releases. Thats why I never buy the first release of

MoinMoin is extensible and modular system. You can replace almost any part of the system by installing a plugin. It is the best system for a typical wiki hosted on your server, if you like to extend and customize the system, and you happen

The problem is that each vote change the number of points, so if you happen to be the first down-voter, it will become zero. But if another user up-voted the same item just before you, then your vote change nothing. I seems that reddit solv

You mean down-voting past 1 points? Why it add bias for future readers? I also don't see why you need to reward the community. The right to down vote is not different from the right to up vote, and any user should have it. Up vote is simpl

It is. When you make a mistake, you should be able to fix it, and there is no reason to prevent this.

I think it is a great idea that a human editor is involved, and site content being edited. A similar process happen on a good wiki, and I always enjoy when my prose is translated to English behind my back :-)
