Hi all,
Most of you are probably about to discover that our Etherpad instance has changed. (To top that off, linking like this [[2]] no longer works and the tags view still does not).
There are currently two pads on there (as the rest were dumped): the Rules and README (shamelessly copied from etherpad.trinitydesktop.org) and July Meeting Topics. Please do not create any more pads right now until linking works again, otherwise there will be too many duplicates.

In addition, there is a new "Request New Account" link. I have not tried if it works, so if anyone could try it and email back, I'll check if it works.

Just for information, the destruction of the existing pads was an unintended consequence of an attempt to upgrade, as the original Etherpad installation was compiled from an older source tarball and had some nasty problems. This new instance is built from the latest sources into a package and then installed on the production server, so the other problems people had been noticing with the original installation should now be fixed. Additionally, scheduled backups will commence of the Trinity Etherpad/source control server, so that this resource continues to be available even if buggy software destroys the data on the production machine.
I apologize for the inconvenience and hope to have the remaining features (tags, etc.) installed shortly.

Linking is enabled again. Please let me know if you run into any other missing features that were originally present on the old Etherpad installation.
This new installation has repaired inline file attachments, so please feel free to upload sample artwork, sketches, diagrams, patches, or anything else you feel is related to the pad topic and useful within the narrative.
Also, I have been informed that the twitter style tag search function (the "tags view" mentioned earlier) will probably never work on the open-sourced Etherpad versions, so linking is your best bet for organization. That being said, please feel free to use the twitter style hash tags in case I feel inclined to repair the search plugin myself. ;)

Works. We should start recreating any other Etherpads that are deemed necessary right now.

I see. In that case, we better have some master "Category" pads with links. Otherwise I can see a bit of a mess coming our way.
