-Re-render bug

-If .ikiwiki is deleted and a wiki is rebuilt from scratch, and
-po has created po files before, something wrong happens:
-

-> -rw-r--r-- 1 joey joey 1159 Jul 19 22:51 index.html

+Name of toplevel index page
+---------------------------
+
+Normally at the top index page of a wiki, you see the wiki name at
+the top. However, at the top *translated* index page, you see something
+like "index.da". --[[Joey]] 
+
+Pagespecs
+---------
+
+I was suprised that, when using the map directive, a pagespec of "*"
+listed all the translated pages as well as regular pages. That can 
+make a big difference to an existing wiki when po is turned on,
+and seems generally not wanted.
+(OTOH, you do want to match translated pages by
+default when locking pages.) --[[Joey]]
+
+Edit links on untranslated pages
+--------------------------------
+
+If a page is not translated yet, the "translated" version of it
+displays wikilinks to other, existing (but not yet translated?)
+pages as edit links, as if those pages do not exist. 
+
+That's really confusing, especially as clicking such a link
+brings up an edit form to create a new, english page.
+
+This is with po_link_to=current or negotiated. With default, it doesn't
+happen.. 
+
+Also, this may only happen if the page being linked to is coming from an
+underlay, and the underlays lack translation to a given language.
+--[[Joey]] 
+
+recentchanges links to po files
+-------------------------------
+
+When a po file is changed, the recentchanges page shows a link such as
+"sandbox.es". But, clicking on it goes to the English (or negotiated
+language) version of the page. It would be better in this one case if
+the link went direct to the translated version of the page. --[[Joey]] 
+
+Double commits of po files
+--------------------------
+
+When adding a new english page, the po files are created, committed,
+and then committed again. The second commit makes this change:
+
+       -"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8\n"
+       -"Content-Transfer-Encoding: ENCODING"
+       +"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
+       +"Content-Transfer-Encoding: ENCODING\n"
+
+Same thing happens when a change to an existing page triggers a po file
+update. --[[Joey]]
