>> With BIG thanks to Jim Tittsler and his tireless WikiEducator dedication

>>
>> A health warning -- this is hosted on our beta-test server install in

>>    1. Go to: http://we1.wikieducator.net/Main_Page
>>    2. Login with your Wikieducator username and password
>>    3. Select a page in the wiki for editing -- try your user page.
>>    4. Click on the [Rich Editor] link which appears on top of the screen
>>    5. Start having fun with a WYSIWYG editor.
>>
>> Note:
>>
>>
>>    - We will implement a more elegant solution for selecting the default

>>    - We will implement the advancement of rich text editing in Phases

>>    - There are still various features and services which are still not
>>    operational on the test servers -- these will be migrated before going 
>> live
>>    on the new install.
>>
>> Looking forward to hearing your feedback, thoughts and suggestions for
>> moving forward.
>>
>> I think this is going to make a big difference to participation from
