Hi Tal, The Wiki is a great idea! Alas I'm not that familiar with setting up Wikis. Any idea how to practically approach this?
I'm currently a bit in a hurry, as I have to give the introduction next monday. I'll have a first, basic introduction ready by the end of the week, but I'll continue to develop a more complete document later on. Naturally, this will be available for the internet community too. I'll keep you updated.
