BTW, this could also be a smart way for cookbook recipe writer to demonstrate their large scale creations. I was thinking there on blog related recipes or at a larger extend, ones involving either large or specifically crafted sets of wiki pages. Anyway this also would imply a rather increasing sys-admin work, that I fear the actual team (Pm, Petko,...) couldn't necessarily spend as requested. -- Dominique _______________________________________________ pmwiki-devel mailing list pmwiki-devel@pmichaud.com http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-devel
