  Ted,

  I agree with you completely. . .
Chris:

Maybe I missed something here but what project are you talking about? Does=
 it support the generation of information from experience or rely on ??? I=
s it the "best practices" manual? I would have problems with something lik=
e that that didn't list:

1. The name of the person reporting
2. The thing that is reported
3. What was sought and what was the result.
4. General surrounding data.

It would have to be grouped by subject and not be instructions but rather e=
xperiences.

For example:

Cleaning:

Bob of Bob's Brewers states that cleaning should be. . .

Ted of Earth-Wise states that cleaning should. . .

John of Soil Soup states that cleaning should. . .

Elaine recommends. . .

The Compost Tea Manual states. . .

etc.

Like I said, I belong to a number of groups and each group has the same pro=
blems at one time or another. I'm sure your efforts are appreciated but so=
metimes, success can breed hubris and that can put people off.

I have a rather long story about how I learned that. It's was very painful=
 to me when I finally saw my own actions through the eyes of someone else. =
 If you are interested, email me BC and I will write you the story.
