Hi, all,

As Harvey notes below, I can setup a wiki on the Comsoc site. The
question is whether this is useful - note that this means anyone
interested would need to either check the site periodically, or sign up
for emails when given pages change.

Also note that email policies would apply to the wiki.

Please post whether a wiki is useful to you.

Joe
