IANAL, but I personally think it is adequate because that link is in a "go read this" note as mentioned earlier (specifically, "...review the information in the Note Well..."). That is very different from the sort of "these are the rules" statement to which I thought Jay was pointing. Glenn's note clarified things quite a bit; at this stage I'm happy to crawl back into my cave and let the Trustees sort things out. > I am scratching my head trying to figure out why we can't > assume that whoever puts notices on the wiki has enough sense > to put something sufficient there.
