+If you are coming to this page for the first time, you'll see the form into 
which you can enter your username and some other settings (password is stored, 
in plaintext, but currently not used). It is best to choose a WikiName (like 
Firstname``Lastname) as username to get your changes and signatures link back 
to your Wiki``Homepage. Entering your email will enable you to get 
notifications on page changes.
+
+If you click on '''Create Profile''', a user profile will be created for you. 
With the response, a HTTP cookie will be sent that contains your user ID, which 
enables the system to recognize you.
+
+ /!\ ''This "ID", shown in the response page, can be used to send the same 
cookie to other machines you might use. So jot it down! Or cut and paste the 
URL shown above, after you created your profile.''
+
+'''Logout''' clears the cookie. As described above, '''Login''' enables you to 
gain access to your user profile if you somehow lost the cookie or are on 
another machine. '''Save''' just updates your profile.
