Sounds good to me too - later today (still haven't slept yet). Doh!

I like the whole wiki to website migration idea. I've never used a
wiki like that. Unfortunately I seem to have a less mature audience at
the wiki I run and I'm constantly running into power struggle type
things. The end result is just that nothing ever really gets done
unless I do it myself. I think the Ubuntu wiki had more pages added in
the first week than mine has in six months. (of course Ubuntu has a
larger audience than mine too!)

I'll probably find out when I sign up later, but how does the editing
on the main website work? Is it still using a wiki type format or do I
(we) get access to the Plone CMS?

Thanks again Lu, I look forward to working with ya! :-)
