I think I do remember you mentioning that, Jon, so sorry I didn't  
mention it. My personal RAM is corrupted. :(

I think a site that made all the tips and tweaks, style options for  
OmniWeb available would be great. I'm quite surprised how quickly  
users pick up on things I post at BBEdit Gems. People evidently find  
having them available like that, as opposed to searching the BBEdit- 
Talk archive, very helpful.

I am not able to set up a wiki or CMS myself, but I would be willing  
to put time into posting content and maintaining the site. Is there  
anyone here who would be willing to setup such a site? Joseph Hourcle  
used Drupal for BBEdit Gems, and I like it, but a wiki (with a  
password, perhaps, to avoid wikispam) might be easier to set up. I  
don't know... We use a wiki for Debian-Women, with a password, and  
that works pretty well.

(What is a Mac user doing on Debian-Women? On Gnome-Women? On  
translate-pootle or kde-vi? I think they wonder, sometimes, too. :)   
I translate for open source, so I pop up on all sorts of OSS lists  
and confuse people by talking about OSX.)
