aloha! the review of materials on the ESW wiki in HTML topic space is severely hampered by the lack of "discussion" pages for each wiki page -- without which, the only way to engage in "discussion" via the wiki is to directly edit a wiki page, which can completely distort the original intention of the page; a simple example is the wiki page located at: http://esw.w3.org/topic/HTML/Action54AltAttribute which reflects a proposal submitted to the working group; discussion of this proposal on the ESW wiki SHOULD be facilitated through an associated discussion page, so that comments upon the content of a particular wiki article can be addressed without either materially changing the content of a wiki article or causing article bloat as more careful commentators append their proposals to a wiki article at the end of the original article, which often means repeating a lot of text... is this something which can be corrected in a timely manner? is it even possible with MoinMoin? gregory. -------------------------------------------------------------- DISCUSSION, n.
