Hi Niclas,

you´re probably right. The reason I didn´t do the changes myself is that I´m not sure about the Wiki-rules. 

I understand that I can add a *new* wikipage anytime. But what about changing pages from another author? Of course I *can* change anything I want, since there is no login required... and of course I wouldn´t ask before fixing a broken link. However adding new links or content is something different, isn´t it?

Shall I mark my changes? Shall I inform the original author of the page? Shall I just add my comments at the end of the page, and leave the rest of the page unchanged?

Regards,

-Jan

In other words: relax and do what you think is good. _If_ 'we' don't 
like what you do, we can always patch what you have done.
