The 'who is in all of them' question is the easy part: take a look at hub:/etc/aliases :) > I can think of two places off the top of my head, but could do with some > input as to where would be most appropriate: i) the existing hats article; > ii) the "Who is Responsible for What" part of the contributors article. > I'm open to other suggestions. I think the hats article would be a good choice, with a couple of links to it from both the Handbook and the Contributors article. [clickety-click] The above represents me writing and then removing a sentence suggesting that we should place this in the Handbook. On second thought, maybe the Hats and Contributors articles were extracted for a reason, and the Handbook should be kept for really everyday use procedures and problems. So yep, IMHO, the Hats article would be a good choice.
