It may still be a good idea, especially where one person holds an office 
of sorts, *if* the pages are replaced when someone new takes over.

In my thinking hard about evolt.org and what makes it unique, filling a 
need, and what makes people responsive to us, I think it is in fact 
largely about people, not in an egotistical self-serving way, but in a 
personalized way.  People matter here.  So it makes sense to have people 
own pages... but not people who have been gone for years.  gah.

I think a big failing is our reliance on oral tradition.  I really think 
our mantra needs to be: put it on the wiki.  Seriously.

If it's not on the wiki, it doesn't exist.
