Fantastic! If you haven't already done so, can you add info about them
to the sblref.tex file in the test directory?

Agreed.

I have installed dokuwiki on my server and set up a starting page for
SBL LaTeX.

http://wiki.marshwiggle.net/doku.php?id=sbllatex:main

Anyone can register an account, but I will then need to give write
access. Dokuwiki uses namespaces, so I have made an sbllatex namespace.
If any of you want to add info and documentation, I suggest putting it
here. we can use it for blueprint stuff too since launchpad doesn't
really let you discuss much for these.

If you haven't used dokuwiki before, it seems pretty simple to use. It
gives a bit of documentation on the site when you are editing regarding
its markup.

call every file sbllatex:*, and I'll make sure you have permission to
creat and modify under that namespace.

When you've created an account (from the login page) drop me an email
and I'll set up permissions.

I've made a page at

http://wiki.marshwiggle.net/doku.php?id=sbllatex:bib

that can be used to document and discuss the bib format supported by the
style.

I'm open for any suggestions on how to lay out this page. Put something
up, and we can always change it later.

David
