[NA-Discuss] MOU - Lets get things started

[Ted Ernst]

Darlene and everyone,

Are you familiar with the "history" feature of the wiki?  Every single
edit is tracked, and you can compare any two version that you like,
with the software showing you all the changes.

I bring this up because it might save you some working making the
changes visible in the document itself, since these formatting changes
will have to be taken out for us to adopt this anyway.

Please let me know if you'd like a walk-through of this (or any other)
wiki feature by phone or skype.

peace,
ted
