I know tracey just added some more sections to the site.

on my side:

1) i think we should keep a splash page before the wiki.   that way we
can at some point set up another cms if we want to.

if we don't keep a splash page then people will link to
http://www.civicaccess.ca to go to the wiki.  To put a blog in before
that a year later would mean breaking everyone's links to the wiki.

so we should prevent http://www.civicaccess.ca from forwarding
automatically to the wiki.

and 2) we should keep a splash page because many of the people who we
want to become participants of civicaccess have never seen a wiki
before and will be kinda shocked with how unprofessional it seems.
especially because it seems that we're going to have to "go live"
before we get a nicely organized wiki with lots of content.

Steph - can you put a back a temporary splash page?  and maybe you or
patrick or someone else can do a lightly designed splash page explain
civicaccess in french + english (link to suggested text below) with a
link to the wiki?
