I am sort of new here, and I won't pretend to know much, but it seems that it would be nice if someone with more skill than I have could set up a Wiki, that way anyone could sign in who wants to, they could quit when they wanted to, not show up if they don't want to. Contribute if they want to. I won't pretend to know all that it would require, but it is just an idea from something I was reading about connected to another project that I am working with.
