interesting concept. the content is managed in a wiki form and is stored in a database. the access to the server is only need to modify the forms and the templates. personally, i haven't yet used mercurial yet (nor git; i still normally use svn, which is not ok to publish a website). let's see how we will manage the site next year... i think that we will give up with anwiki. mercurial could then be a way to manage it! ciao a.l.e _______________________________________________ CREATE mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/create
