Perhaps we should host some of that kind of stuff on the wiki?

not a bad idea

Definitely a modern take on the d-i-y and helping each other theme.

I will need to tweak the allowable file types for upload - since
mediawiki by default only allows a limited list of file types.

What are the typical file extensions?

(or perhaps its easier to simply allow .zip and assume anything will be
zipped first)


A bad idea surely? Zipped files are used to conceal all sorts of
nefarious things.

On an open wiki sure... ours is writeable by account holders only which
limits the damage somewhat.

A zip file is inherently of unknown content/nature, so very much something liable to make people paranoid. And something it'll be hassle for the maintainers to check. And not necessary.
