The very coolest thing about open-source software and collaborative work like PmWiki is that anyone can jump in and offer something. You can't do anything truly egregious except delete or claim someone else's work. But sharing is the name of the game; it's why we're here, it's why we're using PmWiki. Recipes are mainly add-ons to PmWiki; your contribution here, I think, wouldn't be /strictly/ a Recipe, but it is /useful/ information others may want to read about. So I'd say it befits an inclusion. For this, you can make a zip file containing the components (Excel spreadsheet with macro and VBScript file, I think?) Now think of an interesting and descriptive WikiName for your submission. What would *you* have looked for before you started down this road? Then go to http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/CookBook/<YourChosenWikiName> You'll see a question about whether to create this page. Clikck on that link and you'll get the usual editor page with a handy dandy template already there for you, from there you should be familiar with the pmwiki editing cycle. Attach your zip file, named YourChosenWikiName-files.zip or some such thing; it's important to keep the namespace pollution low so someone doesn't accidently overwrite your file. Leave us a note here when you've finished it. I don't believe there is necessarily any obligation to support things you've entered, although it is the norm. Indicate the level of support in the recipe header, with perhaps some warning text. Some one of us or another will probably pop over and fix anything we see to make it conformant if it's not. _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
