Re: [Fhsst-authors] New site test

[Mark Horner]

Hi Lindsay

Good suggestion about the assignments page. I'll look into it
in the next 48 hours.

About the content, if you add something and relinquish it, it stays. Our 
philosophy
is that any contribution is something and the next person doesn't have 
to start from
scratch. We can roll it back to the original version if it proves that 
our philosophy is wrong :)
Intervention is easy.

Thanks for the suggestion, I might even do it now :)

Cheers,

Mark
