Think you might be on to something here. I had not heard of this type
of site before and suggest that all members go to your favorite search
engine and enter "wiki". I did and was duly empressed by the concept. It
might be a way out of the MD/MF bugaboo.
Here's the way I could see it working. Continue the MD list as is and
use the Wiki concept for the latching MF side with a link to it from the
MoQ. Org site. That being said the setup, serverspace, time, techical
expertise, and cost of doing this maybe prohibitive. I don't know.
First of all, wiki sites with, interested contributers, are the ultimate
in dynamic appearing at least to be wide open to editing by anyone at
anytime. Definitely a leap of faith. But they are also relatively new
and already have evolved so that some sites/softwares have some pages
that are protected by passwords or only editable by the webmaster. I
saw one with an honor system payment method of $10 through Amazon to the
webmaster to help defray cost. It is interesting that a lot of them are
sites for or about the software that runs the "wiki" site, or a wiki,
"wiki" site.
Interesting.
