I would prefer to have an analysis of the difference between what has<br>
been migrated already<br>
<a href="https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/user/bsps/index.html" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/user/bsps/index.html</a> versus<br>
what is in the wiki. If some content needs to move out of the wiki,<br>
then a patch to add it to the docs would be good, then we could<br>
discuss on the list whether or not to move that content or to delete<br>
it. If content has been migrated or the migration discussion leads to<br>
a decision to delete, then we should remove that page. Removing a page<br>
requires an admin privilege, so I think a list of pages to be removed<br>
should be maintained somewhere like<br>
