I'm in London, UK so lots of hand-holding isn't really an option.
Being a bootstrapping geek I'm used to fending for myself in most
circumstances, but I haven't grokked Wagn yet. The concepts sound
good but applying them is something else and I'm speaking as a long
time wiki user. Also I have people looking to me for guidance on how
to apply Wagn to their project and I'm not in a position to provide
that guidance as yet (a very unfamiliar and uncomfortable position for
me).

What I need help with is howtos, more content on the pages brought up
by this search would help:

As for what I can do to help you, you'll have to tell me. I'll tell
you a bit about myself as it might help. I'm a techie with a deep
interest in social change (one of the reasons I'm interested in Wagn
is because it looks like the Grasscommons guys have values similar to
mine).
I'm a bit of a maven which means I know about all sorts of stuff in
various domains and I have an active network in the UK and Europe
around social change and social enterprise.
Last November, I attend Be The Change 2007 http://bethechange.org.uk/2007.cfm
Amongst the many things I'm connected to, one of them is a group of
people looking to organise an event in London around the launch of
Muhammed Yunus' new book: Creating A World Without Poverty - Social
Business and the Future of Capitalism, see http://tinyurl.com/26uzne
for more info.
One or more of the above may be of interest to you, but perhaps none
of them are.

To support some folks in a project, I recently put up
http://weflow.agoraworx.com/wagn/WeFlow where you will already see the
first query from a end user.
