 Cocorico! is now located at

http://logical.futurs.inria.fr/cocorico/

This transition happened a while ago (December) and was announced on the
wiki itself.

The source of confusion might be that the old URL still contains a
*read-only* version of the wiki at the time of the migration (together
with a banner on each page indicating the new address). Since at that
time we had a problem with spammer scripts we decided to not set-up an
automatic redirect immediately. I can set-up a redirect now, but please
forget the old URL and use the above URL in your links/bookmarks.

Yes, that certainly reduces the confusion -- thanks.

The remaining confusion is that some of the current contents of Cocorico seem to be in a somewhat skeletal or preliminary state, which makes it hard to know what parts are really useful, up to date, and actively maintained. Would it make sense to move the more sketchy pages into a separate category ("Under Construction" or something) so that it is clearer which are the solid/useful bits?

Also, please let us know if it's *not*  okay for us to repost your
project description on our wiki.

I really don't get why you guys started a new wiki to store first Coq
Tips / FAQ and now, apparently, to collect list of groups working on
programming language formalization using Coq. In your first post you
mention that in the future you might be migrating to Cocorico, but
this
as well doesn't seem to be a good idea: the later, the worst. Can you
please migrate your stuff to Cocorico so as to avoid duplication of
efforts?

Hi Stefano,

To be honest, we've had some trouble understanding what is the status
of existing Coq wikis (the "official" one and Cocorico).  I posted a
message here in the fall asking which one was under active
development and received no responses; then at POPL I had some
discussions that indicated that Cocorico was now the main one but
that it was in the process of being moved and reorganized.  We
followed this up with some emails asking where we should add the
material we were thinking of putting together, but these have not
been answered yet.  Finally we decided that it was better to go ahead
and collect the material and transfer it to the main Coq wiki
whenever it became clearer exactly where that belonged.  If you or
someone else can help us with that, we'll be more than happy to
migrate our stuff.
