Not a dumb question (or we are both dumb), I went thru that exact 
process in the last few days. We should provide easier wiki access to 
users that can contribute something else than code to the project, I am 
all for opening these access to people that asks for it. I know there's 
a few others lined up to contribute to the effort of a new wifidog 
version, mostly ideas and collecting/organizing them, I don't see why we 
should do that elsewhere than on the wiki on dev.wifidog.org (unless 
someone has a good reason not to and can explain it to me).
