[smufl-discuss] Re: Using a wiki to track progress (Was: Next steps)

[Adler, Mark]

I have to agree with Thomas on this one. A wiki would go a long way to
make this process much more user-friendly to those participating,
especially to any latecomers to the discussion that would like to easily
catch up on the discussions. Why not organize the various threads now?
