Chris:

Thanks for this explanation of txti. This sounds like a good solution. I
like the idea of linking the txti site to the NABL website, so that
attorneys with the password can add their own tips and tricks to the wiki,
rather than waiting for the manager of the website to add content.

Good Morning Rod,
I'm was wondering what you mean by "a more public platform." The page I
provided is public, accessible, and editable by anyone with the edit
password. Of course, I'm open to using another platform, but the notion of,
for instance, using the NABL website strikes me as a tedious solution, not
to mention to potential pitfalls in giving a number of people who aren't web
developers the ability to alter the code of the group's website. One
potential solution would be to link the txti page to the NABL website, which
would accomplish Patti's goal of increasing traffic to the NABL site.

The reason I used txti is because it is the easiest, most accessible
platform for creating text-based webpages that I've ever found. Most of us
don't have the time or interest to learn how to code, but editing on txti is
as easy as typing in Word itself. Again, I'm open to anything, but I wanted
to attempt a better explanation of txti in case I was unclear before.

Best,
Chris
