That is worrying. I don't think Andrew McNab will be very happy about
this. Do you want to email him or shall I?

Editing is very easy. Just go to the wikipedia help pages for any
information you need. To set up a new wiki entry, just edit the page from
which you are linking so that it includes the name of the new entry,
surrounded by [[ ]]. The wiki software then knows what to do.
i.e. ...an alternative SRM is [[DPM]].
Clicking on the DPM link will then take you to an empty DPM entry that you
can start adding content to. Let me know if that doesn't make sense. You
should have a look at the stuff that I have already put in the wiki for
examples of the markup used.

I'm not sure about this. I have said on the welcome page that I am
maintaining the documentation, but having a single editor somewhat
detracts from having a wiki in the first place. One solution would be for
a person to mail this list whenever they make a change. Or maybe only
those people who are not me/yourself/Owen/Jiri. I'm not sure exactly what
is the best policy here. I think we need some input from the rest of the
list. We should discuss the issue during the Wednesday conference.
Cheers,
Greig
