Thanks for the explanation. It's most helpful, although I did eventually
figure it out for myself.

Sounds, like a good idea, within limits.

I asked Chris Brown about filtering (see sub-thread), but another option
that occurs to me now is that we could simply include a highly visible
box on every planet 'page' which explains what it is and its
relationship to the core WYLUG site.
