I don't have any experience writing documentation.  But I guess I gotta
start somewhere, no?

I've seen the KPLUG Wiki from a browsing standpoint, but don't know
anything about contributing.  How do I go about it?  Do I create content
in a text editor, word processor, or html editor?  How do I upload it
once I'm done?  I understand that a wiki is something that one person
can create and others can come and edit.  I just don't know any of the
mechanisms.

Wow.  You really need to clip.  I probably could have understood what
you were saying if you'd quoted only the last paragraph, Ralph,
instead of the whole mess.
