Right now there are (at least) 3 versions of this template floating

Once it's ready, yes, we need to plunk this into an "authors" area,

We need to clean up that "Author/Contribute" box a bit. I'd recommend
you reference the template inside the H-H, only so that they can
rev independant of one another.
