Greg,
Is there any way that we can set up the search engine to ignore tone markings? I ask because once we have non-Chinese speakers (of those without pinyin input capability on the computers they are using, a problem I have today), it makes it difficult to find things.

I have two questions for you: 1) How do you set up an automatic redirect? 2) How do you get the computer to automatically put in your name+time (as you did on my Talk page)?

I was also thinking 100 myself. I am rapidly approaching the end of what I have ready in files, but I feel there are about a dozen people we should include before we go public, such as Yuanying, Jiang Weiqiao, Cihang perhaps, and, of course, Jichan the Eight-fingered Ascetic. Perhaps I can work on brief sketches of them this weekend.
A constitution of sorts would not be out of the question. I like what you have done with the Creative License. I will look at statements on other sites (such as Wikipedia) and see what looks good. Feel free to do the same.

I found another issue with the pinyin Romanizer = Initial En takes no tone mark. This may be a problem with many of the initial vowels.

The pinyin window looks great and works like a charm. Do you think we should add Sanskrit diacritics?
I think the index page is OK, but is not really necessary. I say this because once we pass a certain number of pages, it will become much more expedient to do a simple search.
I have Yú's 現代佛教人物辭典 here and there is a good entry on 會覺, 2:1308a-1309a (followed immediately by 楊仁山!) I will input that page this weekend. I am also going to put up a list on my page of 'Must have' entries to work on before we go live.

Greg, the statement looks good. I cannot think of anything to add right now, though if I think of anything later, I will let you know.
