Please have a look at the content below (or at this link <A href="http://openwetware.org/wiki/OpenWetWare_talk:Welcome_email">http://openwetware.org/wiki/OpenWetWare_talk:Welcome_email</A>), and edit as you see fit. Once we have finalized the content, we will go ahead and implement the changes.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>EMAIL CONTENT _START_</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Welcome to OpenWetWare!</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Your new account has been created with username UMS_NAME.
