And I dare any stranger to try and swamp ME out!

There are a few questions regarding allowing non-Lulu members (Taff is undoubtedly an honourary Luluian due to his input to the Lulu forum, and he is, after all, a member of Lulu).

It would undoubtedly be good for exchanging ideas and for learning about other possibilities.

The main impetus for my starting the UK Wiki Lulu was so that the Lulu authors, artists,photographers and musicians could get some additional exposure, a shopfront over which thay had more control, and a chance to stand out when Lulu has such a vast array of content. Lulu is not particularly good when it comes to marketing and the wiki seemed like a possible option to help with this. More members would mean more visitors, but would also increase the risk of any one author's pages being harder to track down, and I would not want for the Lulu authors' pages to be swamped by the extra content, especially of those whose POD outlets are more effective with regard to marketing. These concerns apart I don't really have any objection.

I guess that it's really up to the members of this wiki as to who they want to join, and if the consensus is that other PODers should, then I would be ok with that. Personally, I am undecided at present.

I don't recognise that sequence of letters, and when I googled it I got a rare assortment of different organisations none of which seemed to have much to do with us. Am I thick or something? As a fairly recent member I'm not so keen on offering an opinion until I know what the old hands think, though I am of the more-the-merrier school.

Would you like me to invite them to join us here or do you want to keep this for Lulu SPIAs only (yep I know you let me in).
Of course the danger of having others in is that you will begin to discuss other options to Lulu and hence may lose that Lulu feel.

I won't invite anyone unless the consensus is the 'more the merrier'.
