-7. Edit via [[wiki/cvs]] or [[wiki/web]].
-7. Play in the [[SandBox]] (or read [[FormattingHelp|ikiwiki/formatting]]).
-7. Create yourself a [[users]] page.
-7. Write whatever you like, wherever you like.
+If you're here because [wiki.netbsd.se](http://wiki.netbsd.se/) has
+shut down, welcome. Took us by surprise, too; we'd hoped for a
+smooth transition rather than an arbitrary deadline. Alas, it's not
+in the cards. We ask for your patience as we work our way down [[the
+wiki todo list|wiki/todo]] as best we can.
+
+As an official service of The NetBSD Project, you can count on the
+long-term stability of this wiki. We'd love to have your help
+building it. We'll be ready for you soon.
