Folks

I have temporarily disabled user self-registration on the FAQ Wiki at 
http://cam.misc.org.uk because I'm seeing a growing number of people who 
appear to be would be spammers signing up as users. They don't seem to 
be spamming once they're signed on so whether this is a semi-broken 'bot 
at work or something else with potential for evil. I'm not sure but 
anyway it's becoming irritating.

So if you do want to update the Wiki, and you're not already signed up 
as a user, then email me with the username you would like and I'll sign 
you up manually.
