# Installation/Setup questions

+Ikiwiki creates a .ikiwiki directory in my wikiwc working directory. Should I
+"svn add .ikiwiki" or add it to svn:ignore?

+Is there an easy way to log via e-mail to some webmaster address, instead
+of via syslog?
+
+> Not sure why you'd want to do that, but couldn't you use a tool like

-# asciidoc or txt2tags ?

-Any plugins or support for using asciidoc or txt2tags as the wiki language and/or exporting to asciidoc or txt2tags?

Any setting for limiting how many kilobytes can be submitted via the "edit" form?

It would be nice to be able to edit the stylesheet by means of the cgi. Or is this possible? I wasn't able to achieve it.
Ok, that's my last 2 cents for a while. --[Mazirian](http://mazirian.com)

+# Spaces in WikiLinks?
+
+Hello Joey,
+
+I've just switched from ikiwiki 2.0 to ikiwiki 2.2 and I'm really surprised
+that I can't use the spaces in WikiLinks. Could you please tell me why the spaces
+aren't allowed in WikiLinks now?
+
+My best regards,
