I think it's fair to say that you should simply add / edit / correct liberally. As long as the pages are improving, then there isn't any sort of *approval* needed. Make the changes you think need to be made. If there is a specific question / concern, raise it on the list to see if you can get an answer... then edit away. -chip > Thanks, > Abhijith
