• Discussing the terms of  how Sun employees would contribute content to the Liferay community wiki under the terms of the MIT and Creative Commons open source licenses. This was resolved by Sun employees making contributions to the Liferay community wiki as individuals rather than in any official capacity.
• Creating a process where  a team of Sun writers would research and write articles intended for the Liferay community wiki, then undergo peer review by the other team members for accuracy and content.  This followed the requirements that Liferay used to post wiki articles from other individual contributors.
• Installing and configuring the Sun implementation of the Liferay 5.0 portal server software on a lab machine so that writers could research and write articles based on the current software build.  This also made it possible to validate and revise the download and installation instructions that were provided  with the early access builds. 
• Researching and writing the article Create a New Account (which also made it possible to evaluate the use of the Liferay wiki editor for authoring). This required that the article be written using the Creole markup language, but the Liferay team agreed to investigate the possiblility of providing a WYSIWYG editor in a future release.
• Evaluating the use of SGML-based authoring tools to create wiki output that could be posted to the Liferay community wiki.  This required posting the wiki output "as is" to determine the necessary modifications for acceptable display (which primarily consisted of list and link formatting).  This was the approach that I used to manually reformat the remaining articles so that  they could be posted to the Liferay 5.0 wiki within the terms that were discussed.
