We had such blurp for long time and for reason. denisq during his 
front page editing hosed 

http://opensync.org/wiki/WikiStart?action=diff&version=139&old_version=138

is for some reason, my guess is that he thought that makes opensync sound 
like unfinished - something that it is.

The fact is that until those folks who can write those missing core 
parts, there is not that much that others can do. Removing that warning
label from front page is just going to make people upset again 
what it did earlier and why it was put there in the first place.

Loosing your valuable contacts during your first attempt of backuping 
with opensync is something that I would get pissed off too.

My question is, what is the gain from having anyone to log in and
change wiki compared to manually created accounts? It would kill spamming
that we've been targeted for years at least. I've a feeling that
nobody of old farts is looking after what goes on in wiki these days.
