+Trac Wiki converted to Pelican Markdown
+=======================================
+
+This is a dummy landing page for a Trac Wiki site converted to
+Markdown and fed through Pelican to create a static web site.
+
+See [the conversion scripts that produced
+this](https://git.hactrn.net/sra/trac-wiki-to-markdown) for details on
+the conversion process.  Be warned that it's a lot of nasty regular
+expressions, because nothing other than Trac really understand's
+Track's Wiki format.
+
+Trac's landing page is always called [WikiStart](wikistart.html).
+
+Pelican's [automatically-generated index](pelican-index.html) is the
+default Pelican landing page, but we had to move it aside to make room
+for this one.
+
+Feel free to clean all of this up, this page is just a placeholder to
+make it easy to navigate the converted wiki until a human takes over.
