I'm not defending the approach. I was simply pointing you to a site that discusses it, and has a lot more experience that anyone here with respect to Wiki vandalism. My own opinion is that we could require end users to register, just as they have to register for a mailing list. The registration process would e-mail a unique SSL cert to install into a browser. With that SSL cert in place, users can update the Wiki. Without it, they are read-only. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
