I'd have to dig up whether we actually took a vote, but I'm pretty sure the council doesn't consider this a problem. If people want to contribute, they can sign up for the wiki. It isn't like it is one of those even non-FOSS tools. However, I think the rest of your concerns are valid, especially the concern about being able to include non-devs on aliases (whether you consider them "members" or not). I don't have a problem with asking them to sign up on the wiki, but we'd need to change the templates/etc so that they can still be listed somewhere on the project. And of course somebody has to build it. -- Rich
