Thanks for the note, Toby.  I went ahead and blindly gave User:Toby on
Electowiki "confirmed" status.  Assuming that's your account, you may
now be able to edit pages there.

I also sent a note to Dreamhost about the bounce I received from the
mailing list related to your email.  I'm not sure what's going on
there, but there could be a problem with email between Dreamhost
(where the mailing list and the wiki is) and yahoo.co.uk.

In general, the Electowiki content has become dated and harder than it
should be to update.  I'd like to keep hosting the content I'm
licensed to host, but I also would be just as happy to get out of the
content hosting business and rely on other mechanisms to share
content.

Restating your answer to my question: you're looking for a place to
collaborate with people in this community about approval/score-based
proportional representation.  Do you do online collaborative writing
in other contexts?  If so, which tools do you use?
