Thanks Jared for cleaning up. Do we need to change <any of our operating
procedures?



I think this is why we only want official members to be able to edit . . .
those who are somehow identified/approved. Perhaps it is possible that not
everyone can just sign up for an ID - that there is some sort of approval
process and you must supply a name (and the name has to match up with a name
on one of the subcommittee or member lists). We don't necessarily have to
limit which pages they can edit, just only grant editing privileges (or
allow those to get a userID and password) if they are a member. Anyone
should be able to view the wiki and sign up for the listserves, but maybe
not everyone should be able to edit the wiki.
