* A place to store snipplets of the potential [[content]] that might be stored in the system and delievered to the [[consumer]]s when the system gets built. Before we can get into that we have to figure out who can say what about what, how to mark it up and how and where to store it, how to set UI defaults so that people won't ruin their day totally by just trying out the system...

Note: Many IE clients have problems detecting correctly when a page has changed (this may be due to piratism on your behalf). If you notice this behaviour you can press CTRL+Refresh to do a force-refresh.

The [[Special:Preferences]] page lies about the system clock, it's not in UTC, but UTC+3, so keep that in mind to get the times presented correctly.
