Hello Jean,
I just gave you 'back' edit rights (I guess you worked on the wiki
before the whole edit right thing?)...

You speak of 'a simple G', but in my browser it's a specially
formatted G, that reminds me much more of a key then the ugly GKEY
did. This is a new template done by broken/Matt, personally I think
it's much better this way! That particular page however needs to be
fixed ofcourse if we don't use that format anymore.
