[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] adding a page to the wiki

I love the idea to have user group info in the wiki!

I'm a little concerned about moving from "Communicate" to
"Participate", because the latter seems closer in meaning to
"Contribute" and thus muddies the navigation a bit to my mind. But I
guess one could argue that to communicate is to contribute, so things
are already muddy.

Has anyone checked what other projects (that we admire for their
community support & clarity of their web site) do? Drupal.org &
Fedoraproject.org have some interesting similarities in their
navigation wording choices...
