This is all a nice idea. We have to expose the fact that there is 
actually a Greek documentation project for FreeBSD, we may then attract 
more volunteers.
Now that I've actually bought the freebsdgr.org domain, I was thinking 
of doing a small restructuring in the my wiki:

- Move stuff unrelated to FreeBSD from the front page
- Add an English version of the front page for people "passing by" the site
- Maybe add some front page info on how to get involved / get in contact 
with us (maybe using some stuff from the FOSSCOMM presentations)

I am always open to other creative ideas :)
