This '''freedesktop.org (MoinMoin)''' article is for the original '''freedesktop.org''' wiki site, powered by the web-based {{tag|MoinMoin}} wiki engine.  This specific MoinMoin-powered site is now {{tag|dead}}.  In May 2013, it was abandoned due to excessive spam, and converted into a git-based [[:Category:ikiwiki|ikiwiki]] wiki engine, the new article is [[freedesktop.org (ikiwiki)]].

{{freedesktop.org}}
 
'''freedesktop.org''' is {{tag|open source}} / open discussion software projects working on interoperability and shared technology for {{tag|X Window System}} desktops.  The most famous X desktops are [[:Category:GNOME|GNOME]] and [[:Category:KDE|KDE]], but developers working on any [[:Category:Linux|Linux]] / [[:Category:Unix|Unix]] GUI technology are welcome to participate.
 
freedesktop.org itself is host to numerous other [[wiki]]s (all originally using {{tag|MoinMoin}}, but from May 2013, all freedesktop.org wiki sites have since converted to [[:Category:ikiwiki|ikiwiki]]) for various sub-projects, including:
*[http://Xorg.freedesktop.org Xorg X window server and libraries]
*[http://CairoGraphics.org Cairo graphics library]
*[http://XCB.freedesktop.org XCB] Xlib replacement library
*[http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/ The nouveau wiki] for programmers trying to produce open-source 3D drivers for nVidia graphics cards.
*[http://DRI.freedesktop.org/wiki/ The DRI wiki] maintains a list of graphics cards that have DRI drivers available, and supports programmers improving DRI; DRI, the 'direct rendering infrastructure', allows direct access to graphics hardware under the X Window System.
*[[PulseAudio wiki]]
 
;''Moving from MoinMoin to ikiwiki in 2013
{{Cquote|'''Web services status
We figured out that <tt>freedesktop.org</tt> was hosting about 500000 wiki pages full of [[spam]].  We've '[[:Category:Spammed|despammed]]' the wikis by moving any page with 'http' in the contents out of the way.  Secondarily, we've [[:Category:ReadOnly|eliminated the ability to login]] to the wiki as our attempts to disable account creation have never worked correctly.
 
We want to move from a [[:Category:Web|web]]-based wiki to a [[:Category:Git|git]]-based wiki, the plan is to use [[:Category:ikiwiki|ikiwiki]] for this.  We won't have any [[:Category:Cgi|cgi]]-based [[edit]]ing, the only way to get changes into a wiki will be to push changes to a git repository which will have a hook to rebuild the visible version.
 
In the meantime, you can recover pages that were accidentally removed by using the 'mv-page' script in /srv on <tt>annarchy.freedesktop.org</tt>.  Anyone in the group associated with the wiki should be able to recover pages.  I think the script is pretty safe, but please be careful.
 
And, if you're clever, you can update wiki pages by manually constructing them in the moin/data/pages directories (that's how this page was edited).}}
