We're using the Drupal book module for this, which seems adequate to our 
immediate needs. It is possible to write a page and then decide where it 
should be located and/or linked at a later date. So I think I'll just 
get on and create the resource and let Daniel worry about the more 
technical side of the site. ;)

Tell me about it!

OK, this is very much WIP:

I shall probably tighten it up over the course of next week.

Thanks for the feedback. :)
