Hi all,

Done. Sorry for the delay.
I also thank to Michael Han for the previous reversions.

I recovered the contents of the BioRuby's English wiki site
as of Oct 3rd and the Japanese site as of Sep 1st.

I also applied some restrictions for posting.
Please use user: bioruby and pass: wiki to edit the site.

Thanks,
Toshiaki Katayama
