I just gave 'write' priviledge to the team horizontal-admin on 
rgf-star-wg. That way, Addison and colleagues can now update the wiki.

We use both of these in Unicode's MessageFormat working group to good effect [2][3]. But I'm totally fine with using the wiki if our folks can get access (and if that's appropriate).

+1 it seems to be more flexible indeed.

it seems that Wikis can either be fully open (anyone can edit) or 
require 'write' access, with no in-between configuration...

>> In today’s meeting I said I would take on starting a discussion of text direction in RDF. I created a wiki page [1] describing the problem space and some potential solutions which I invite interested people to contribute to. The advantage of this is that it is an easy space for people to collaborate. The disadvantage is that there’s no simple notification when changes are made. So, if working on this, please send updates to the RDF-star WG mailing list and indicate the topic using the subject prefix “[Text Direction]” or by responding to this email.

Ultimately, our solution should be documented there, but this wiki page, or one derived from it, may be useful past the time the issue is settled as a rationale for the direction we actually take.

My personal feeling is that the WG should choose one asap, put it into the new RDF draft, and publish a new TR with that approach. The RDF community may (or may not...) react and see if it carries. Otherwise, we are in the danger of dragging this discussion on for a long time...
