Hi Wei-hsing,
Your wiki has been created. You'll need to take care of moving your
content yourself though (export and import of XARs should work fine).
Enjoy your new wiki!
Thanks

Hi Wei-hsing,
Thanks for pinging me. I'm in SF at the JavaOne conference right now
so I won't have time to do anything for a few days.
Also you need to go at
http://myxwiki.org and read the instructions
there as I told you in my previous email. This farm is not managed
by
me. It's a community farm managed by the
community which means you
need to ask the community, not me. You'll see that once you send the
email as instructed on
myxwiki.org the wikis will get created very
quickly.
Last, the community will be able to create the new wikis for you but
you'll have to do the migration of data from the old farm to this
farm. Again if you want pro services then you should use the pro
farm
and then the XPertNet company can do the
migration for you as part
of
the hosting cost you'd pay.
Thanks
-Vincent
