I asked Steve _not_ to change the site architecture (which pained him) -- 
so it currently mirrors our existing one.  If you list what sort of 
changes you'd like to see we can improve things -- just let me know.

Yeah, I was just trying to put a name to our current practices for sharing

suggestions, return to the (c) CUWiN, etc.

Do folks have other feedback?  Please send ideas along so that we can get 
this done by the end of the week.
