No, the best thing of all would be something that can

On the other hand, that might be lame. That's just my idea. :-)
My lame name suggestion is Pediawiki. "Which wiki software does wikipedia
run? Wikipedia runs Pediawiki! It's the wiki software designed for
encyclopedias!"
Jimbo mentioned the possibility of a CVS
system--wouldn't take long to set

Yes, probably Monday morning we can set this up.
There's NO REASON to think that we need to hurry this because of the New York
Times article. Our current site will easily survive the load of that, especially
after I finish speeding up the search engine (later this afternoon, cross your
fingers).
