3 * Revert preservation of input file modification times in output files,
4 since this leads to too many problems with web caching, especially with
5 inlined pages. Properly solving this would involve tracking every page
6 that contributes to a page's content and using the youngest of them all,
7 as well as special cases for things like the version plugin, and it's just
9 * cgi hooks are now run before ikiwiki state is loaded.
10 * This allows locking the wiki before loading state, which avoids some
11 tricky locking code when saving a web edit.
12 * poll: This plugin turns out to have edited pages w/o doing any locking.
13 Oops. Convert it from a cgi to a sessioncgi hook, which will work
15 * aggregate: Revert use of forking to not save state, that was not the right
17 * recentchanges: Improve handling of links on the very static changes pages
18 by thunking to the CGI, which can redirect to the page, or allow it to be
19 created if it doesn't exist.

23 ikiwiki (2.30) unstable; urgency=low
26 * Old versions of git-init don't support --git-dir or GIT_DIR with
27 --bare. Change ikiwiki-makerepo to use a method that should work with
28 those older versions too.
29 * aggregate: Don't let feeds set creation times for pages in the future.
30 * Add full parser for git diff-tree output (Brian Downing)
31 * aggregate: Fork a child process to handle the aggregation. This simplifies
32 the code, since that process can change internal state as needed, and
33 it will automatically be cleaned up for the parent process, which proceeds
34 to render the changes.
37 * Add trailing comma to commented-out umask in sample ikiwiki.setup, so
38 that uncommenting it does not break the setup file.
41 * inline: The template can check for FIRST and LAST, which will be
42 set for the first and last inlined page. Useful for templates that build
44 * prettydate,ddate: Don't ignore time formats passed to displaytime
46 * Pages with extensions starting with "_" are internal-use, and will
47 not be rendered or web-edited, or matched by normal pagespecs.
48 * Add "internal()" pagespec that matches internal-use pages.
49 * RecentChanges is now a static html page, that's updated whenever a commit
50 is made to the wiki. It's built as a blog using inline, so it can have
51 an rss feed that users can subscribe to.
52 * Removed support for sending commit notification mails. Along with it went
53 the svnrepo and notify settings, though both will be ignored if left in
54 setup files. Also gone with it is the "user()" pagespec.
56 * meta: Add pagespec functions to match against title, author, authorurl,
57 license, and copyright. This can be used to create custom RecentChanges.
58 * meta: To support the pagespec functions, metadata about pages has to be
59 retained as pagestate.
60 * Fix encoding bug when pagestate values contained spaces.
61 * Add support for bzr, written by Jelmer Vernooij. Thanks also to bma for
62 his independent work on bzr support.

69 * inline: Add copyright/license info on a per-post basis to atom
70 feeds if available. (rss doesn't allow such info on a per-post basis)
71 * Also include overall copyright/license and author info in atom feeds if
73 * meta: Allow copyright/license metadata to contain arbitrary markup.
74 * Call preprocessor hooks in void context during the scan pass. This allows
75 the hook to determine if it's just scanning, and avoid expensive
77 * img: Detect scan mode and avoid generating and writing the image file
78 during it, for a 2x speedup.
79 * meta: Run in scan mode again (more intelligently) and re-add support for

82 that needs to use it. This was broken in version 2.16.
83 * template: Remove bogus htmlize pass added in 2.16.
84 * template: Htmlize template variables, but also provide a raw version
85 via `<TMPL_VAR raw_variable>`.
86 * When htmlizing text, if the input is a single line with no newline,
87 and the htmlizer (such as markdown and textile) generates a html
88 paragraph, remove it. This allows removing several hacks from other
89 plugins that htmlize fragements of pages.
90 * In preferences, allow the subscriptions and email fields to be cleared.
91 * teximg: Fix to support the same formula on multiple pages.

97 * Only try postsignin if no other action matched. Fixes a bug where the
98 user goes back from the signin screen and does something else.
99 * Improve behavior when trying to sign in with no cookies.
100 * Improved the canedit hook interface, allowing a callback function to be
101 returned (and not run in some cases) rather than the plugins directly
102 forcing a user to log in.
103 * opendiscussion: allow editing of the toplevel discussion page,
104 and, indirectly, allow creating new discussion pages.
105 * Add a prereq on Data::Dumper 2.11 or better, needed to dump q// objects.
106 * htmlscrubber: Further work around #365971 by adding tags for 'br/', 'hr/'

117 * Split error messages for failures to drop real uid and gid.
118 * Retry dropping uid and gid, possibly this will help with the "Resource
119 temporarily unavailable" failures I've experienced under xen.
120 * Stop testing Encode::is_utf8 in decode_form_utf8: That doesn't work.
121 * decode_form_utf8 only fixed the utf-8 encoding for fields that were
122 registered at the time it was called, which was before the
123 formbuilder_setup hook. Fields added by the hook didn't get decoded.
124 But it can't be put after the hook either, since plugins using the hook
125 need to be able to use form values. To fix this dilemma, it's been changed
126 to a decode_cgi_utf8, which is called on the cgi query object, before the
127 form is set up, and decodes *all* cgi parameters.
128 * aggregate: Only save state if it was already loaded. This didn't used to
129 matter, but after recent changes, state is not always loaded, and saving

141 * conditional: Improve regexp testing for simple uses of pagespecs
142 that match only the page using the directive, adding 'included()'
143 and supporting negated pagespecs and added whitespace.
144 * map: Fix handling of common prefix to handle the case where it's
145 in a subdirectory. Patch by Larry Clapp.
146 * aggregate: Fix stupid mistake introduced when converting it to use
147 the needsbuild hook. This resulted in feeds not being removed when pages
148 were updated, and feeds sometimes being forgotten about.

154 ikiwiki (2.16) unstable; urgency=low
156 * Major basewiki reorganisation. Most pages moved into ikiwiki/ subdirectory
157 to avoid polluting the main namespace, and some were further renamed.
158 * meta: Add redir support, based on a patch by Thomas Schwinge.
159 * Redirs added for moved basewiki pages. These will be removed in a future
161 * Remove .otl file from sandbox to avoid build ugliness. Closes: #454181
162 * Finally implemented a simple per-page data storage mechanism for plugins,
163 via the %pagestate hash.
164 * Use pagestate in meta to detect potential redir loops.
165 * Added a version plugin that saves state about what's using it, to force
166 pages to rebuild when ikiwiki's version changes.
167 * The calendar plugin stores state about when it needs to be updated,
168 and forces rebuilds of the pages that contain calendars. So
169 running ikiwiki --refresh at midnight is now enough, no need for a full
170 wiki rebuild each midnight.
171 * calendar: Work around block html parsing bug in markdown 1.0.1 by
172 enclosing the calendar in an extra div.
173 * Fix file pruning code to work if ikiwiki is run with "." as the srcdir.
174 * Add an edittemplate plugin, allowing registering template pages, that
175 provide default content for new pages created using the web frontend.
176 * Change formbuilder hook to not be responsible for displaying a form,
177 so that more than one plugin can use this hook.
178 I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.
179 (If some other plugin already used it, it would have broken passwordauth!)
180 * Ensure that web edited pages always end in a newline.
181 * Avoid unnecessary stat calls to get mtime when rendering pages, use
183 * Preserve input file modification times in output files.
184 * Allow dashes in preprocessor directive commands, and shortcuts.
185 * Htmlize parameters passed to the template preprocessor directive before
186 inserting them into the html template. This ensures that markdown
187 acts on them, even if the value is expanded inside a block-level html
188 element in the html template. Closes: #454058
189 * Use a div in the note template rather than a span.
190 * shortcut: Expand %S to the raw input text, not url-encoded.
191 * Don't increment feed numbers when an inline has no feeds. (Nis Martensen)
192 * Allow editing a page and deleting all content, while still disallowing
193 creating a new page that's entirely empty.
194 * meta: Drop support for "meta link", since supporting this for internal
195 links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
196 storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
197 duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
198 * If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
199 openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
200 that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
201 the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
203 * meta: Improved data storage.
204 * meta: Drop the hackish filter hook that was used to clear
205 stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
206 liw's disappearing openids).
207 * aggregate: Convert filter hook to a needsbuild hook.
208 * map: Don't inline images.
209 * brokenlinks: Don't list the same link multiple times. (%links might
210 contain multiple copies of the same link)
211 * git: Correct display of multiline commit messages in recentchanges.
212 * Re-organise dependencies and recommends now that recommends are installed
214 * Don't refuse to render files with ".." in their name. (Anchor the regexp.)

254 this is needed to do OpenID really securely.
255 * ikiwiki.setup is licensed same as the basewiki, not GPLed.
256 * inline: Add timeformat parameter to control how the ctime of
257 inlined pages is displayed. Closes: #451019

259 to be created owned by some group other than the default. Useful
260 then there's a shared repository with access controlled by a group,
261 to let ikiwiki run setgid to that group.

283 * Fix some issues with toggles in preview mode.
284 * Fix an aggregate plugin expiry bug. Over time, it's possible for the same
285 page name to be expired and reused for several distinct guids. When this
286 happened, the expiry code counted each past guid that had used that page
287 name as a currently existing page, and thus expired too many pages.
288 * Avoid a race in the git rcs_commit function, by not assuming HEAD will
289 stay the same for the duration of the function.
290 * Avoid using commands like git-diff and instead use "git diff".
291 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
292 * Improve the RecentChanges display for git merges, by passing -c instead
293 of -m to git-log, and by skipping display of commits that change no

296 show the full message.

324 which seemed a wee tiny little bit overkill. Fixed the dependency
325 calculations (I hope.)

347 * In the cgi edit path, reload the index file before rendering. A bug
348 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
349 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
350 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
351 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
352 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
353 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
355 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
356 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error
357 meesages were treated as if they came from git stdout.

359 to not-yet-existing pages. I don't have a useful style defined for that

362 ikiwiki via XML RPC. This should be much faster than the old plugin that

380 * map: Remove common prefixes and don't over-indent.
381 * Add class option to htmllink().
382 * img: Allow link=somepage to cause the image to link to a given page.
383 Slight overriding of link, as link=no is still used to disable the linking
384 entirely. Unless you have a page named "no"..
385 * Save index after previewing page edit, since even previewing can create
386 files in some situations, and this is appropriate in some cases, such as
387 the teximg plugin's error log file.
388 Such files will be automatically cleaned up at an appopriate later time.
389 * Don't allow whitespace in link text in a wikilink. This was still
390 allowed by the regexp in one case though not documented to work, and

503 a page creation isn't occuring.
504 * Various minor fixes and stylistic improvements suggested by Perl::Critic.
505 * Applied Jeremie Koenig's pluggable editpage buttons patch:
506 - add a title to the editpage form;
507 - pass a reference to the list of buttons to the formbuilder_setup
508 hooks, so we can add ours;
509 - relax asumption about the possible submit values (use "Save Page"
511 - de-hardcode the submit buttons from the editpage template

513 3.0401, but ikiwiki already needs a newer version.)
514 * Pass buttons to all other formbuilder_setup hooks too.

525 * Add embed plugin, which allows embedding content from google maps, video,
526 calendar, and youtube. Normally, the htmlsanitiser eats these since they
527 use unsafe tags, the embed plugin overrides it for trusted sites.

560 most web sites serve ikiwiki xhtml files as text/html and mozilla browsers

595 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
596 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
597 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
598 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
599 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
600 always be tracked correctly.
601 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
603 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
604 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
605 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
606 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
607 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
608 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
609 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
610 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
611 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
612 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
613 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
614 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
615 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
616 not (if set from the page filename).
617 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
618 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
619 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
620 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.

1498 * Change how the stylesheet url is determined in the templates: Remove
1499 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
1500 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
1501 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
1502 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
1503 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
1504 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
1505 multi-line quoted values.
1506 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
1507 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
1508 * Add a template plugin.
1509 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
1510 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
1512 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
1513 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
1514 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
1515 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
1516 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
1517 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
1518 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
1519 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
1520 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
1521 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
1522 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
1523 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.
1524 * Support running "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=foo" to build ikiwiki to run
1525 from a different directory.
1526 * Generalised preprocesser loop protection code.
1527 * Patch from James Westby to allow a description to be set for rss feeds.
1528 * Patch from James Westby to add a template for the search form.
1529 * Added a ddate plugin.
1530 * Patch from James Westby to add a --sslcookie switch, which forces
1531 cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.
1532 * Fix preferences page on anonok wikis; still need to sign in to get
1533 to the preferences page.
1534 * Add toc (table of contents) plugin.
1535 * Change htmlize, format, and sanitize hooks to use named parameters.
1536 * Patch from James Westby to add an actions option to inline; this
1537 adds Edit and Discussion links at the end of blog entries.
1538 * Due to some css changes, you'll want to rebuild your wiki on upgrade
1539 to this version. Will be handled automatically by the deb.

1589 * The last release accidentially installed ikiwiki as ikiwiki.pl, now fixed.
1591 * Man page format fixups.
1592 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
1593 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
1594 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
1595 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
1596 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
1597 forcing the link to lowercase.
1598 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
1599 with a given name exists.
1600 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
1601 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
1602 should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.

1613 templates but can be useful for things like making comma-delimited lists
1614 of tags or what have you.
1615 * Remove <br> from end of aggregate preprocessor directive output.
1616 * Ship ikiwiki executable as ikiwiki.pl in source to avoid issues on

1632 * Try to handle relative links in aggregated feeds. However,
1633 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
1634 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
1635 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
1636 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.
1637 * Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
1639 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
1640 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.

1643 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
1645 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
1646 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no

1700 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
1701 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
1702 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
1703 to perl code that does the matching.

1811 about changes to rss feeds.
1812 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1813 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1814 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1815 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1816 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1817 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1818 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.

1827 getting in the way of the preview.

1832 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1833 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1835 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1836 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1837 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1838 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1839 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1840 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1841 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1842 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1843 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1844 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1845 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1846 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1847 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1848 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1849 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1850 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1851 No code changes involved.

1870 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1871 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1872 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1873 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1875 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1876 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1877 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1878 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1879 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1880 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it

1883 given the readfile fix.
1884 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1885 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1887 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1888 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1889 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1890 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1891 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it

1906 for some handy stuff like:
1907 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1908 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1909 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1910 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1911 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1912 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1913 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.

1915 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1917 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1918 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1919 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1920 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1921 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.

1959 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1960 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1961 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1962 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1963 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1965 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1966 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1967 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1969 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1970 relative to the inlining page.)
1971 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
1972 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
1973 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

1977 ikiwiki (1.3) unstable; urgency=low
1979 * Fix the preinst introduced in the last version. Closes: #367458

1983 ikiwiki (1.2) unstable; urgency=low
1985 * Remove dups from the brokenlinks list.
1986 * Add libc6-dev to dependencies, needed to build wrappers.
1987 * Install wikilist in correct location. Closes: #367371

1991 ikiwiki (1.1) unstable; urgency=low
1993 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
1994 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
1995 on upgrade to this version.
1996 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
1997 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
1998 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
1999 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
2000 plugins) during a page render.
2001 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
2002 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
2004 * Added a plugin system.
2005 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
2006 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
2007 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
2008 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
2009 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
2011 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
2012 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
2013 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
2014 different location) already exists.
2015 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
2016 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
2017 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
2018 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
2019 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
2020 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
2021 * Smart globlist merging.
2022 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
2023 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
2024 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
2025 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
2026 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
2027 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
2028 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
2029 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
2030 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
2032 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
2033 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
2034 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
2036 * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
2037 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
2038 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
2039 * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
2040 * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
2041 by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
