I created a couple of new pages and I plan to document everything I learn so I would like to see the wiki stay. > > > > I'm looking for suggestions how to continue with the wiki in 2007.

However to be really useful it would be necessary to rename some of the existing pages and that does not appear to be possible.

There are better python wikis than trac. In particular moin-moin is quite close to the present docu-wiki. Moin-moin versus trac: http://www.wikimatrix.org/compare/MoinMoin+TracWiki Trac is missing a lot. Moin-moin versus docu-wiki versus twiki http://www.wikimatrix.org/compare/MoinMoin+DokuWiki+TWiki I notice that Twiki has namespaces but Moin-moin does not ... otherwise all three of these are comparable. I guess I would vote for Twiki if we were changing. > > R. > -- --gh
