I feel a need to add two things here. 

First, the problem was not that of a wiki where people were working and 
I wanted control.  The problem was one person was trying to advance an 
idea and another was trying to battle it in the same space.  That is not 
workable no matter what.  I would have been more than happy to cooperate 
with anyone on ideas.

Second, as a somewhat humorous postscript, I moved my stuff off the 
StrutsCatalog even though I had been pretty much the only person to use 
the StrutsCatalog space in many months and those who advocated have the 
"freedom" to what they wanted on the wiki then objected both to where my 
link went to and the nature of the link. 

So, I gave up and just abandoned all connection to the wiki whatsoever.  
There is only so much interference worth the while.

But, on the point Martin made, I would also vote:

+1

Your turn, Jim!  ;-)
