Hi John,

The Wiki isn't intended to compete with the mailing list or a forum.  
It's oriented more toward collecting useful information in one place and
as such it competes more with a FAQ.  The advantage of the Wiki over the
FAQ is that anyone with an interest can update and correct it.  The
TikiWiki software I'm using includes a number of other features
including image galleries, blogs, and forums.  I haven't implemented any
of them because they  weren't related to the problem I was focusing on.
I'm not knocking your forum idea.  If the group prefers that venue, I
will certainly participate.  The one thing I  like about the mail list  
is that  the posts are pushed to me.   I  don't have to go looking for
them.

Bob White
