Wiki like documentation Was: Re: Wrapping up 7.4 (finally)

[Michael Verret]

Hi,

Please consider adding me into the wiki team. I've years of experience
managing wiki's for Zenwalk Linux as well as being the webmaster for
all of their other sites, FTP accounts and so on. I've also been
working with Alan Coopersmith to keep the module releases up to date
in the wiki. I'm dying to help out.

:)

Michael
