Yes, done

Yes, done, although not fully polished.  Check it out at =

http://barcampgr.org  Anyone can help us develop the event page, a =

planning page, etc.  You will have to create an account and log in to edit.

Yes, I've copied/pasted the main pages from previous years.  I plan to =

use https://www.knowledgelab.org.uk/Importing_pbwiki_to_mediawiki and =

get all our old barcamp.org pages onto barcampgr.org

It should be quite easy.  Don't know if it matters much

Advantages:
@barcampgr.org looks nicer
don't have to rely on gr-jug.org mail service working.  sometimes it =

gets stuck and stuff.

Disadvantages:
some noise for subscribers
