[DAS2] move biodas website to a wiki?

[Steve Chervitz]

Distributing the load of maintaining this site sounds great to me (the de
facto maintainer). Wikification is also good for consistency within the
open-bio.org family.

I've initiated the process. Might have something preliminary to show next
week.

Of course, this means we'll have to come with an icon. Suggestions? How
about a armadillo driving a submarine that looks like a gene structure in a
sea of DNA?
