Murray--Just realized that you are the same Murray that answered my previous
post.
Now I am blushing ;-) When will women learn to keep their mouth shut?

But another question comes to mind..I have a client that actually requires
the same functionality Murray described and the only justification for
having
two wikis that I can think of is to have an read only internet wiki as a
public version
and a intranet open version. The intranet wiki is for the authors while the
internet
version is just a backup version displaying which ever pages you deem no
longer to be
a work in progress.

Unless the two wikis are copies of each other, you may run into a
maintainence
problem which defeats the effort. So just as registred users mark their
pages for deletion,
they could just as well mark their pages for publication. As such "done".

Administrators would be the only ones who get to publish the done pages on
the internet. Does jspwiki have the filtering capabilities to do this Janne?
And if so would this be advisable in your opinion?

Murray,
With the requirements you set up, you might want to go with a CMS.
Wikis have evolved to mimic some of the features of a CMS but as Janne
explained a wiki is mainly a collaboration tool allowing certain pages to
be
members only. If you choose to have two wikis installations, users will
also
have separate search engines per wiki. I hope to be experimenting with
Multi
Wiki installations and IMHO, it takes a bit of coding skill and deployment
skill
to tackle your request because you are basically modifying typical wiki
behaviour to
your liking. May I suggest that you read the security section and the wiki
and cms
section of wikipedia's wiki article?

If you then still want to go multi wiki, I'd be happy to share  my results
and help in what I can.
