As the Americans say on chat shows, "First of all", I would like to say
sorry for last night. I had my son on my lap, so I could only watch and
not type (it was his Mum night off ;-) ), but here are my comments:

Looks great. Well done Paul and everyone!

I think this has to be the way to go.

With CV access, can a use update anything in the docs module or only what
they have been allocated, I can't remember what was said before?

I think this answer my question above, messing with peoples files.

Fair enough.

OK.

I'm waiting for some task ;-)

Anyway way to have some sort of include that pulls that page into the wiki
and vice versa in order not to duplicate work?

Yes, what do people want on the site?

Checking...

Gavin will....

Who needs some help?

Thanks.
