The motd contract uses the XSLT contains() function to determine whether the motd is displayed for a given path. It does not appear that the contains() function is intelligent enough to do what you want. Also, a brief search shows a general lack of support for regular expressions in XSLT 1.0. Perhaps the motd could be injected via the Cocoon pipeline, where regular expressions are supported. -Brian
