[edit] Technology

The site is called a "wiki," which means that every page has an "Edit" link and a "Discussion" link so that the community of users can collaborate on the content.

NOTE: Editing privileges have been assigned to work group leadership for initial launch.

It uses the MediaWiki software, which is the same software used by Wikipedia.
