-****TEST**** Yep, but it posts everywhere from what I can tell. jp
-Checking to see what happens when I "talk" to you.
-== Is this how it works? ==
-Anyway, wrt to HOWOTO formatting, I have no specific ideas about this.  I think we are constrained by the pinwiki formatting.  If you mean the actual seperation, I think there needs to be a 'general' section (how to test coils, transistors) and then a platform specfic howto.  What we need to stay clear from is 'reinventing the wheel', where someone writes an article but doesn't notice someone else has already started a similar one.  To avoid this, I'd suggest using the search box first to see if an article exists already.

-Chris:  Hey, I've been waiting on the Forums to come back up to bring this up, but saw you mentioned site organization as well.  I think it's time we get some kind of plan together before we get so many pages that it becomes too difficult to re-organize.
-I put together sort of an outline that describes the way I suggest we do it.  I'd be happy to start the process, but it would be pretty involved, so I'd hate to start it and then have everyone say they hate it so I thought it would be best to get some others involved in it as well.  Without the forums though, it's kinda hard to do that, so I guess this is the best we have.
-I put this together pretty quickly, so if there are any questions, or any issues, just let me know
