I originally went the Kevin/Kathryn route, reskinning blosxom (a perl-based blog we use for our news pages) to give it as much as possible of the same look and feel as the PmWiki parts of our site (http://www.ukfederation.org.uk). However, this means that a separate login system is necessary for updating the news section (and yet a third for the home page), so it seemed like it would be a very good idea to rip out the news section and redo it in PmWiki - ideally in such a way that reskinned news stories would be findable at the same URL that they were created at (yes, will need lots of mod_rewrite dinking). This, though, is proving a bit harder than I expected (renaming the blog to news in blogsimple is not just a matter of a global text edit, and blogsimple2 doesn't seem to like something else on the wiki), so I suspect I'm going to have to either give up on the idea, or suddenly learn how to write an appropriate recipe myself....
