Re: Duplicate Threads

Re: Question about Public Profiles

Re: Procedure for submitting/approval of Wiki item
Bob, I hadn't thought of formalizing a process for editing GMF's wiki. Time will tell if something like that is needed. At the moment, as Duane said, it works like any other wiki: anyone with write

Re: Procedure for submitting/approval of Wiki item
The Wiki here on GMF can be modified by group subscribers, so there's not really a procedure to follow. You go to the page, make the changes, and save them. If there's a major problem, a moderator can

Re: Help items for general use
I like bold and I like the title you picked. It makes sense; its a familiar phrase that you often see when you buy a new piece of hardware (If you actually look at the documentation). Bob Bellizzi

Re: Help items for general use
Bob, Not a problem. That lack has been nagging at me as well, but I've suffered a round tuit deficit. Most of my volunteer time for the next few weeks will be soaked up by my PTA activities; school

Re: Help items for general use
Janice, As a GMF member you can contribute content to the wiki. The existing pages could always use proofreading and updating, or use the New Page button to start a new topic. When you think the topic

Re: Help items for general use
Thanks for the idea Frances. ?But a cursory look at the TOC in the Wiki indicates all of the info is currently for current and new group owners/moderators. Nothing for the poor newbie. ?I agree that
