Hi Tom,

we also have eager people biting at our ankles. The idea of Wiki is that it
is 'alive', but currently the best advice appears to keep it in a induced
coma until we find out the results of what wiki V2 will look, feel and be
edited by. I'll be a good boi and bite my tongue as to what I feel about
putting our Wiki into a coma on the grounds that the world may be different
when it wakes up.

Regards,

Phill.
