[volunteergrid2-l] Gateway Passwords

[Jody Harris]

You need to look at the VolunteerGrid2Group. Only people who "check
in" on the list are added to that group. (The whole wiki is restricted
to VG2 members being able to edit pages and create content. Spammers
will sign up for wikis, and ill use them, so I lock them down in
contrast to the "wiki way" of leaving them open, then doing clean up
all of the time.)

The VG2 group has 9 members.
