nah, it's of no real use to me until i can get it to work for me.  which
at this point either means writing a parser for moinmoin or hopefully
waiting for your changes to propagate into the main phpwiki src and
migrate to that.  updating all the wiki syntax is gonna suck.

good point, but there might be a time when you only want 5 ... or
something like that.

oh, cool.  sorry i musta mis-read the page.  yeah, i'm really interested
in this stuff.

this sounds cool, i think the plugin architecture will be very valuable
for all sorts of things in the long run.

i need to bust out my php book and get my hands dirty.  unfortunely
running personaltelco sucks up most of my spare time. :)  anyone else wish
they didn't have to sleep? :)
