[webdev] Re: wiki

[Clint Brubakken <cabrubak@xxxxxxx>]

Just to see whats its like I put a wiki on the ACLUG site,
http://www.aclug.org/wiki/FrontPage

There is no content there, but its more of a technology showcase, I had
this installed a while ago, but I didn't want to do anything with it
until i looked into it more, it still seem strange that anyone can add
anything they want. 

I've set it up so any one can add to a page, but only logged in users
can edit a page. If you want that ability, I can set up an account for
you with rights to edit wiki pages.

If it gets to be a problem I can do the same with any wiki rights
