I could easily make the name of the editor into an email link, so 
anyone clicking on it would open up a blank email with that person's 
address filled in. I think I'd like each editor to specifically give 
me the address they want that linked to and I won't link any that I 
don't hear from that it's okay.

However, as I stated before, if the comments are typos, they should 
go to me. I will do that kind of editing (since I have to do ALL the 
editing as it now stands) so I will just field those notes and edit 
when I get a chance. That's what I do with the Lexicon now. 

However, I would rather not have to upload entirely new versions of 
the FAQs if possible. It would honestly be a lot easier just to type 
in new passages or do edits in the existing document. So if you 
decide that something needs to be changed, just send me the updated 
paragraphs and let me know where to place them. 

UPDATE: The index page is now correct, I think. I still need to 
upload a couple of pages, which I have downloaded from the files 
section. I will work on the translation to HTML and get them online 
ASAP. When they are live, do we send an ADMIN message with an 
announcement?
