I came to the same conclusion about using reST (now that I've investigated some more). So pydiddy is mostly out (though I might swipe parts of it). I'm playing with a "reSTKit" and a "XSLTKit" which I'm thinking of combining into a sort of wiki setup. I'd love to see what you have though (since you know webware a helluva a lot better than I do). > > * Anything else people want in the website?

If were going to have a custom reST wiki sorta thing anyways, I think we might as well base the site content on reST...unless it turns out to be a hassle.....at least thats what I'm thinking right now. reST files in cvs is kinda appealing way to keep things updated.
