[ODE] Can't edit the Wiki

[Jon Watte]

So the problem is that it already knows who I am, and I don't get 
an obvious login page. I already went to the preferences page and 
changed my password to "sesame" but that doesn't help -- the 
Tips and Tricks page is still read-only.

Cheers,

there's wiki-editing instructions on the main page at

	http://q12.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ODE_Wiki_Area

	"Please login first using the <page> and use the password
	'sesame' if you want to make edits.

everyone has wiki-editing access, you just have to type 'sesame' into the
right box.
