Thanks Bob,
I did hear of the Wiki site some time ago but didn't know it's purpose and I
guess I just ignored it.
I tried to access the site just now and couldn't get access - it might be
something my end ?

Hi George,

That was kind of my idea in setting up the Wiki.  It's available for
anyone to save any usefull information they like.  There have only been
a couple of fairly active participants, as far as entering
information.  Mostly Ernest and me.  Between listing pages and
searching, it's pretty easy to find what's there.

 I think a few people are put off by the funny name, but it's free
software, and those that write free software are inclined toward
funny names.  It can be thought of as a public electronic filing
cabinet.  The advantage over a formal best practices site is that you
don't have to depend on a site owner to keep the site updated. I have
generally added anything that I thought I might want to find again
later.  It isn't meant to replace a best practices site, more to
compliment it.  It is also in no way similar to or in competition with
a discussion forum.
