A good start! Can I join in? If still for sale, can I have 2003 then? A propos issues arising with wikis, I just read back over the recent ALUG discussion which I mentioned. There are some thoughts in there that we may find helpful. If you want to look at them, go to http://lists.alug.org.uk/main/2005-October/thread.html scroll down (it's fairly near the top) to thread: [ALUG] WiKi Status Enquiry Keith Watson and follow it down. I confess I am no sort of expert whatever on the technicalities behind wikis, so eom of that material was over my head. Best wishes to all, Ted. -------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Mail: (Ted Harding) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fax-to-email: +44 (0)870 094 0861 Date: 28-Oct-05 Time: 21:31:33 ------------------------------ XFMail ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Groff mailing list Groff@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/groff
