WIKI is in read-only mode?

how it connected with the subject?

This is not a reason to move the wiki or close it. This is an open 
source project, the marketing stereotypes (that the new generation 
hardware is the better replacement for old one) just not applicable. 
Just because that targeted to stimulate consumer market for sales, but 
not to give ability to people to create whatever they want.

The potential of the hardware is not equal to the formal functionality 
of device. I plan to use the GTA02 as a core for robotic system, for 
example. Someone else maybe create something else with it (whatever it 
could be). It's logical to keep all data in one well know habitual 
knowledge base. And it's logical to keep it open for new supplements.

I'm as a user of wiki just don't care whether it contains some spam or 
not. I have a will to clean it if I found it, or doesn't if I'm lazy (or 
whatever). This is totally not a point.

Honestly I don't understand the reason to close the access for users 
(who are main audience of the recourse) just to avoid the spam. It's 
ridiculous.
