I'm not much worried about "take all of those out", it's easy to spot and put back the previous revision. What's more insidious is if some small things are changed (wrong facts, allusions, even typos added), those can take longer to spot and then you have to merge the original page and the correct modifications which took place after the problematic user came in.

Can you post the Balmer image someplace else on the wiki for us to see? Can you email it me? :-) Dimitrie O. Paun wrote: A few things: 1. We've been attacked Wed by one or two idiots from Slashdot.

I've placed the modifications to the code on the Wine CVS repository at SourceForge in the 'wiki' module. Please feel free to check it out and send in patches (sending them to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject prefix of 'Wiki:' is fine, or directly to me if you prefer). 3.

If not, I'll just simply recreate them. As always, you comments, suggestions and complaints are most welcome.
