We've talked about having one meta-account and having people have many journals under that. We haven't actually written up a plan on how to implement it, so that's not happening this second. I don't know if this is something in scope for beta/launch, but it'd certainly be interesting to discuss. Anyway, for now you will need an invite code for each journal you want to make. We are going to give all existing users invite codes regularly though, which should mediate any pain from having to wait a bit. (Alternately as mentioned by D if you really want to create an account faster, the easiest way is with a $3-for-1-month-of-paid-time, but I understand how that option isn't amazingly appealing.) The beginning of the site is going to be a bit bumpy as we figure out the right mix of keeping codes accessible so people can use the site and keeping them low volume enough so we can effectively grow without running into scalability issues on the virtual servers, etc. -- Mark Smith / xb95 [email protected] _______________________________________________ dw-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.dwscoalition.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dw-discuss
