Kia Ora All,
                        Wow! Have just taken a first look at twiki and 
am very confused! Will get to grips with it eventually. The key point I 
want to raise is this:

*    discussion is occurring about features on the editorial loop. This 
is compounded by people referring to feature articles as `articles'.

My understanding is we have:
*    the AIM loop  - for general AIM chit-chat
*    the AIM-Editorial loop  - strictly for keeping the AIM site fresh 
and unspammed
*    the AIM-Features loop  - for people to create, edit and generally 
work on all aspects of feature articles (which are postings in the 
central column on the AIM site, which need to be uploaded by someone 
with a password - contact Miles or Finn).

Could we stick to this arrangement please? i.e. could all features 
discussion be on the imc-aotearoa-features@lists.indymedia.org loop, and 
could we refer to feature articles either as ``feature articles', 
`feature', or `feature post' to avoid confusion with `ordinary articles' 
posted on the Newswire?

This would ease the stress load on my already challenged cranium :)

Many thanks,
                    Brian.

P.S. I like the new feature!!!
