I'm not sure. But if one person has the access, I'm sure there is a way to
give that access either on a formal or informal basis to others. The dynamics
of the rotation? People volunteer and, maybe a 'head' curator designates who
does what when. That person would also be responcible in case someone decided
to bail out or disappear or whatever. But all of the decisions as to content,
etc, should be by democracy (people voting).

I don't think 'ripping' from space is a bad idea. Remember the old saying;
"Originality is forgetting where you stole it from." I say, lets take whats a
good idea and dismiss what's a bad idea.
I personally like the idea of 'Medieval Weapon of the Month', and it can
circulate on swords, axes, daggers, bows, etc.
But getting a good list of castle links and whatnot is a great idea! It is
difficult to keep up with all the comings and goings, as well as website
hosting changes that affect lego sites. I made a list once for myself, and I
think it is now 50% accurate, which is pretty bad.
we should also link to the Castle FAQ.

Personally I think this should be done by way or articles written by specific
members, and all link from a central location.
I've got some ideas for how to do a layout and try to make it look good. I know
I've said how much I dislike comparisons to space, but something that looks
even better than the space sidebar!!
Well those are my ideas.
It seems we're all on the same page here on how to do things.. what's the next
step? Getting a list of rotating curators and a possibly main curator?
