Well, in the old wiki there were a couple of pages which
had notes about the internal workings of Maxima.
I don't see that stuff at the new wiki.
I have a copy of the old wiki pages -- let me see if I can
dig out the relevant pages and post them at the new wiki.

I think a wiki is an appropriate way to collect various stuff
but as it stands the wiki needs to be cleaned up.
(Certainly I'm as much to blame for that as anyone.)
