[chandler-users] Hub Tutorial

[Mimi Yin]

Hi Liz,

This is great. I've added a link to your email from the "Give others  
access..." part of the Get Started page: http://chandlerproject.org/ 
Projects/GetStarted#Give%20Others%20Web%20Access%20to%20Shared

If you're comfortable editing a wiki, feel free to create a wiki page  
and change the link.

You will first need to sign-up for an account here: http:// 
chandlerproject.org/TWiki/TWikiRegistration

Let me know if you want any help with the wiki. Thanks again for  
contributing this write-up!

Mimi
