 Heh. Sorry to reply to myself, but after a lot of reading, I think I know
how to make a start at this. I am creating a "Main News" topic on the main
page (followed by other topics like "Contributed News" etc. later). The
idea then is to have topics, relating to "sections" of a site - and then
have articles hanging off topics, for entries in that section.

 Also, I would like pages to be "optionally authenticated" - so I could
serve to people that aren't logged in, then give optional stuff if they
are logged in. However, to make $midgard->user and $midgard->admin show
anything when I was logged in, I'd to make the page require
authentication. Now it won't let people look at it, without logging in. Is
there a proper way this should be done?
