There seem to be enough disparate plant DB projects and existing plant
DBs already, PFAF being a sterling example.  I'd be more interested in
integration/enhancement opportunities for what's already out there than
trying to roll yet another DB, at this point.  Unless, that is, we were
to make a 'serious' open source development project out of it, spread
the word widely in hopes of getting a larger community involved and
collecting various scattered individual/small group and/or
private/proprietary efforts into one container.

I don't consider a wiki capable (or appropriate) for a 'serious' plant
database - that's just not what wikis do.

IMO you can ditch the PCPlantDB lists - can always get new ones if
interest revives.
