Hello Frantisek,

I'm a bit embarrassed to see this kind of squabbling on our
semi-public mailinglist, but what can you do?

I am (always) curious about the amount of volunteerism at other
hackerspaces. Do you have designated wiki editors at Noisebridge?

Who came up with the front page in the first place? (that is, was it one
designer who suggested it? Or did someone just make the page and
everyone liked it?)

On a more personal note, thanks for the pointers! I think your
commitment to coming here to help with Tohoku relief is admirable,
make sure you let us know explicitly when you're closer. [now off to
see if I can pull edit alerts from the Noisebridge wiki...]
