Good Evening.

Sorry, Dag. I don't agree here. Small changes could be communicated
with the Original Author (that's what I am doing, at least and I feel
comfortable with).

General Discussion should go to the list.

If you want to implement a comment system, it has to offer at least a
few capabilities, like:

Allowing users to edit or delete their own comments.

Administrators should be able to review/edit/delete all comments.

Then we also need a list of recent comments all over the wiki and the
capability to mail changes to the admin group, too.

Best Regards
Marcus
