Hey Peirre,
Well, you have to understand that part of upgrading the code is doing away
with the flawed design decisions that had become a royal headache to work
around. For example, the code that handled spaces in links/URL's was a

We provide documentation and expect that people read them (especially,

Hello everybody,
So, I've used MoinMoin for years. I've advocated it at all my
