Jamal, you should use ScrewTurn Wiki! I'm sure that's much easier.

Subject: Wiki for collaborative hacking
As another step to support collaborative hacking for improving
EdSharp and other open source projects, I have created a wiki at
http://wiki.EmpowermentZone.com
It uses a standard configuration of the MediaWiki software, popularized by
Wikipedia, http://wikipedia.org
Currently, the best way of learning to use the wiki is by learning how to
use the MediaWiki application. A collection of text tutorials on web
content management systems, defined broadly, is available at
http://EmpowermentZone.com/cms_doc.zip
This includes tutorials on MediaWiki, Drupal, PHPMyAdmin, PHPBB, WordPress,
and other new media applications.
At this point, I have not figured out how to change the default name of "My
Wiki" to something more customized! If anyone else can give me a tip on
that, or can volunteer to help others become wiki contributors, please let
me know.
Other documentation collections that have recently been updated include the
following:
MySQL
http://EmpowermentZone.com/mysqldoc.zip
PHP
http://EmpowermentZone.com/php_doc.zip
and PostgreSQL
http://EmpowermentZone.com/pgsqldoc.zip
To go directly to the wiki page called HackingEdSharp, the URL is
http://wiki.empowermentzone.com/index.php?title=Hacking_EdSharp
Feel free to create wiki pages or categories on other topics on which you
would like to teach or problem-solve together. This is experimental, but
since we have talked about sharing by means of a wiki before, I thought I'd
put it out there for people to try.!

P.S. I realize that a source code control system would have additional
benefits. My web host (HostMonster.com) does not have a simple script for
installing such an application (a simple script enabled me to create this
wiki). I hope others feel free to create more online resources in a similar
spirit of using new media applications to support new or better interactions
among us.
