I think the process might work better (and be less exhausting for Scott!) if we use the Wiki page as a place simply to outline and make terse notes. Then Stuart and I can do the actual "longhand" writing in CVS, and Scott can view the results at the webtest host to monitor and critique our progress. This also keeps Scott from having to learn much about our style guidelines and cuts down on our workload too, since it's easier (I think) for us to write straight into CVS rather than convert -> merge (yuck) -> edit for style. Just my thoughts, waiting for others to comment... -- Paul W.
