I see what you mean, and that is a good idea.  I won't get to it 
today but perhaps tonight or tomorrow.

That is probably the best way to differentiate between types of 
pages.  I will try to add a comment field to the pages 
programmatically so we won't have this problem in future.

Absolutely.  It will be quite large though, 10MB.

Yeah, I'll check WebChanges before putting them back in.

I have included everything you need for a live copy of the wiki 
in the following tarball:

http://www.binara.com/gambas-wiki/gambas-wiki-dist.tar.gz

Make an empty directory called "gambas-wiki" in your web 
directory, cd to it, untar the above, set "gambas-wiki/bin" to 
Options ExecCGI in your apache conf, and I think it should work.  
If it complains that there is a missing perl module I will try 
to help you out (I think anything it required was available as a 
mandrake RPM already.)

Anyone else who wants to set up a live copy of the wiki is 
welcome to do so, though realize that it will become outdated 
before long.
