Charles,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Those instruction wikis are 
necessarily snapshots in time and it's very hard (pronounced "impossible") to 
keep them up to date. I went to go fix the "svn co" for FiPy and realized that 
the instructions for NumPy and SciPy also refer to svn and that the whole page 
needed to be edited, which I didn't have time for.

In that vein. It has just come to my attention that you have been waiting for 
over a month to get a matforge account in order to contribute to our wiki. This 
is absurd and you have my strongest apologies. I first learned of this Monday 
evening and immediately said to approve it, but I learned this morning that 
that still hasn't happened. I've just created your account and will send you 
your initial password offline. I wish we didn't require login at all, but we 
get overwhelmed with spam when we do that.

- Jon
