I just meant using CVS or Perforce for the storage.

I think you mentioned that you were using MySQL for the metadata.  It would
be nice if you could "checkpoint" the metadata to a text file and check that
into CVS/Perforce at regular intervals.  That way if your Wiki database
crashes, you can go into CVS/Perforce and restore the metadata.

If I remember correctly, MySQL makes it really easy to dump the database to
a text file using mysqldump, so this probably wouldn't even require any work
in the Wiki code itself.  It could just be a cron job.
