Cool - thanks a lot!

Done :-) Here it is ...
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Collaboration

Creating a page in MediaWiki is a bit funny, yes. You need to browse to
the inexistent page (e.g. by typing in a URL), then you get the option
to "Create" it. But, you need to be logged in.

Thanks again! I'm sure we can make it a helpful resource for new team
members ... if others think stuff is missing (e.g. I always wanted to
know ..., I know others always missed ...), then please jump in.

Cheers,
Christoph
