Thank you - yes, I understand that it sounds odd. It's an extension of
the basic idea - a bit like using mozilla as an engine to do something
other than write a browser or e-mail application with. I've seen
something along these lines, but not much.
I wrote to these groups because there isn't, strangely, a usenet group
on wikis! It might be a tribute to wikis themselves as good discussion
areas, or an indication of the ossification of usenet that makes it too
difficult to start a new group on an important area or wikis might
simply be a manifestation of various things that don't deserve their
own forum in usenet (or something else, or course).
I'll go to the Wiki Matrix forum, thanks again for the idea - I might
ask about the lack of a Usenet wiki forum too...
