Speaking as a user, and somebody that's poked around (though not in the past month) within JITS -- the two recipes are quite different. JITS is not a "re-hash" of PITS, but a different approach to the problem.
As Jiri said -- JITS was designed to be wiki-resident. With the exception of the ZAP requirements (and Zap's AuthUser requirement)), the JITS code is only wiki pages (with zap markup). This mean those with edit privileges do not have to work with config & other php files, etc. to customize their installation. Plus, when JITS upgrades their customizations will remain intact. The Cookbook has several instances of multiple approaches. This is redundancy in the best sense -- multiple solutions from multiple perspectives, so the user can pick the best match for their particular needs. I don't believe there was ever a JITS version that did NOT require ZAP. -the Other michael http://www.xradiograph.com/interference http://www.xradiograph.com/wrottings > > Just a quick question on redundancy.
