[FRIAM] Archiving Friam conversations as editable text.

[Gillian Densmore]

Nick you want it as editable text?
Can you tell me or us what you meen by that?
Like to print in a book or something latter?
Or do you meen so you can latter say oh hey their's a a threat I was
interested in. I wonder what happened sometime latter. If so
Anyone know if that could be simply done just in a wiki or send it to
wordpress to post them some place somehow?
I meen wiki's like DokuWiki's one of the neet things is they keep track of
tons of stuff.
Just an idea.
