hi Marcin,

Just back from holiday and catching up.....

Ok fair enough.  Perhaps we can enlist your help for future documents  
(as you indeed tried below).

Thanks very much for trying to convert the documents - that's much  
appreciated. The chapter delegates should be able to edit these pages  
- people are volunteering for the projects and updating the projects  
table, so that part is working. Franck is the expert on this  
particular wiki - so I'll ask him to respond and to help me in making  
the pages editable.

More generally, I like the idea of the wiki being more interactive  
and it would be helpful with the Sphere project (and others).

That is our goal - however at this stage we are progressing steadily.

Good suggestion. Franck is our best resource on this particular wiki,  
so i'll invite him to comment.

Thanks for your suggestions overall towards helping us make greater  
use of social media/networking tools within ISOC.  This is probably  
one of the keys to success in the Sphere project.   I look forward to  
your further involvement.

best wishes,
Anne
