And thanks to John for setting the site up. He has worked very hard at getting
the site right. Please visit the site and let's make it a useful resource.

I have copied a fair amount of material from the Lua mailing list to the wiki.
This will hopefully get the ball rolling for the wiki. I've credited the
question answerers wherever necessary and I've quoted directly so you dont think
I've blatantly plagiarised material. I find the specific question-answer style
quite informative. This will probably get refactored in time and the credits
removed. If you would rather remain anonymous, or would like to edit any of the
pages you are, of course, completely free to do so. Thanks for your effort. (I
have added some original material as well :-) Hopefully the site will become the
first stop for any Lua user with a question.
