Hi Mark, Heilbronn guys,

I'm afraid that I don't really see how a city guide running on another
engine could be an "Open Guide" - even if JSPWiki was able to store the same
sort of structured metadata that OpenGuides is, I don't think it would work
out. All the other guides share a codebase as well as a philosophy, which
allows shared development. Dealing with a completely different engine
probably wouldn't work too well for us.

Sorry,

Earle.
