Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Getting Started

Had a look at the Wiki. Not much there.

How does one suggest new categories, add new entries?

The beauty of a wiki is you're not working to a publishing deadline, and 
are not constrained to fit everything in a certain number of 32-page 
signatures. You build whenever material is available, and keep adding as 
long as new material shows up.

I would start by adding a section on stability, with a rundown on 
stability conditions submerged and on the surface (and maybe crawling on 
the bottom). Something like what I wrote here:

Best,
