[p2p-research] Updating P2P scientific research network

Hello,

I just made this page:
http://p2pfoundation.net/P2P_Foundation_Wiki_Project_Leadership

It's a place to write down our best practices when doing the kind of mass
editing and curation we are discussing.

It isn't complete, and I'd love some to work with others on it.
 Unfortunately, in the creation, I realized a lack of support pages for new
editors, now high on my list.

It's on my watch list, and I'll keep creating and editing supporting
documents.  Jump on if if you have a few minutes.

If someone has an idea of how namespaces can be used to organize some pages
I would appreciate knowing how this wiki, right now, sits poised to use
them.  It doesn't have the namespace extension, afaik.

Here's a page for the research network:
http://p2pfoundation.net/P2P_Foundation_Scientific_Research_Network

Mostly empty; a starter, though.

Alex
