Well, I would like a new stable version instead. :) Can't we just
feature freeze soon or are there many halfimplemented things in the
main branch that need improvements?

I will soon update the Swedish translation to be up to date with the
main branch. I've just used CVS for a project in school so I know how
to use it and I can probably check in the update myself, although I'm
always scared to destroy something. :)

If you are on a PHP_SAFE_MODE system, do PhpWiki work like it's
supposed to? I guess you can't mess much with environment variables at
all.

Yes. Have a test script that you can run to check if everything works
ok.
