Perhaps not, but I can think of several possible plausible scenarios. - The maintainer of a program searches the net for references to the program, finds our page, and adds a few useful pointers. I would definitely do this if I found a wiki page on Emacs Muse somewhere. - A security researcher does a quick survey via a search engine for the name of some software and a version number, where the software at this version has a vulnerability of some sort at a user-setup level, rather than an administrative level. He or she finds our page and adds a warning about ways of using a certain configuration directive. - Someone follows a "Hosted by HCoop" link from one of our members' webpages, sees some spelling errors, and wants to correct them. He or she has not decided whether to bother with joining yet, since they have a website hosted elsewhere already, but can sympathize with our project. -- Michael Olson -- FSF Associate Member #652 -- http://www.mwolson.org/ Interests: Emacs Lisp, text markup, protocols -- Jabber: mwolson_at_hcoop.net /` |\ | | | Projects: Emacs, Muse, ERC, EMMS, Planner, ErBot, DVC |_] | \| |_| Reclaim your digital rights by eliminating DRM.
