Thanks, Nick. You have done a fine deed for us.

I combed archive.org shortly after Spoon's passing, but I guess it takes a 
while for them to get the spidered content into the archive and indexed. Might 
be why I missed it back then.

Glad it was found, however. Too bad the Subversion repository Spoon hosted his 
code in was lost, and he was starting to do some rather interesting things with 
XUL too. He also ran the IRC bot on #kwiki, which is why that's been MIA since 
his passing as well.

And I guess that explains for the recent Kwiki users/fans/converts why there 
are "Spoon::" modules in Kwiki. Brian's way of recognizing Iain's contributions 
to Kwiki and its community.

BTW, that code is probably only usable on Kwiki 0.17-0.18. But now with the 
source, it could be ported to a plugin in the current architecture pretty 
easily, I presume.

BTW, although kwiki.org is a *much* higher visibility site than archlug.org, I 
have had only *2* incidents of wikispammers hitting my site, and even then, 
only in the sandbox page. I guess my rewrite rules are to thank for that. Then 
I put up an IP-BanList page, but have never had to use it. Perhaps if Brian 
considered not using the "Hey-I'm-A-Wiki" URL style of .../index.cgi?PageName 
it might have avoided some of the wikispammers.
