cool.

unfortunately, it's broken the melbourne wiki pages.  

looks like all the links are absolute links to
"http://www.wireless.org.au/wiki/?foo" when they should be to
"http://melbourne.wireless.org.au/?foo" or just relative links like
"/wiki/?foo"

could be fixed by a script to change all the URLs in the wiki.

alternatively, if you're running apache then the vhost for apache should
have a redirect rule like so:

RedirectMatch 301 /wiki($|/.*) http://melbourne.wireless.org.au/wiki$1

ps: RE: the membership discussion.

the only mention of membership requirements is at

http://melbourne.wireless.org.au/membership.php

which is very light on details.  it makes only a vague mention of a $5
payment.

there should be complete details on the membership procedure, joining
fee, annual renewal fee (if any).  there should also be copies of the
association's rules and aims statement available for download - in plain
text, html, and/or pdf format.    prospective members should have access
to the rules before they join, so they can see what they're agreeing to.
and, obviously, current members should have access to the rules too.
