+# Installation/Setup questions
+
+I have just installed ikiwiki and it works - at least I have the example index.mdwn page
+compiled and visible. However I have a few issues/problems:-
+
+* A couple of the 'optional' Perl modules aren't optional, you can't install ikiwiki without them,
+these are HTML::Template and HTML::Scrubber (at least I think it was these two, it's a bit messy
+to go back and find out).
+
+> You're right, HTML::Template is required. HTML::Scrubber is only required
+> in the default configuration, and is optional if the htmlscrubber plugin
+> is disabled. --[[Joey]]
+
+* I don't seem to have got an ikiwiki man page created.
+
+> It should be installed in /usr/share/man, or a similar directory
+> depending on how your perl is set up and how you did the install.
+> --[[Joey]]
+
+> Found it, in /usr/local/share/man, since no other man pages are in either /usr/share/man or in /usr/local/share/man the ikiwiki
+> man page is a bit lonely, and more to the point not on my MANPATH. Still I have found it now, I'll just move it to somewhere
+> more sensible. [[Chris]]
+
+* Running "ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup" doesn't do anything. I have edited ikiwiki.setup to
+my local settings. There are no errors but neither does anything get compiled. An ikiwiki
+command to explicitly do the compile works fine. Am I misunderstanding something here?
+
+> Further tests indicate that ikiwiki isn't seeing changed files so doesn't always rebuild.
+> How does ikiwiki decide when to rebuild? I tried a full command line like "ikiwiki --verbose ikiwiki ~/public_html/ikiwiki --url=http://www.isbd.ltd.uk/~chris/ikiwiki/" and that doesn't do anything
+either though it was the command line I originally used to compile. After a long interval I 'touch'ed
+the files and then it *did* compile but 'touch'ing the files after a few minutes only doesn't seem to force a recompile. I'm even more confused!
+
+> ikiwiki only compiles files whose modification times have changed. It
+> should see any change made as close as a second after the last compile.
+> When run with --setup, ikiwiki always rebuilds every file in the wiki. If
+> --setup is not working, you must have it pointed at the wrong path or
+> something; you can pass -v to see what it's doing. I don't know why it
+> would not see recently changed files; you could try stracing it.

+
+> OK, thanks, I don't quite know what was happening before but it seems to be working right now.

+
+>> Weird. I wish I knew what happened, but as it's working now, I'm

+
+* I wish there was a mailing list, much easier for this sort of stuff than this, apart from
+anything else I get to use a decent editor.

+# Excellent - how do I translate a TWiki site?
+
+I just discovered ikiwiki quite by chance, I was looking for a console/terminal
+menu system and found pdmenu. So pdmenu brought me to here and I've found ikiwiki!
+It looks as if it's just what I've been wanting for a long time. I wanted something
+to create mostly text web pages which, as far as possible, have source which is human
+readable or at least in a standard format. ikiwiki does this twice over by using
+markdown for the source and producing static HTML from it.
+
+I'm currently using TWiki and have a fair number of pages in that format, does
+anyone have any bright ideas for translating? I can knock up awk scripts fairly
+easily, perl is possible (but I'm not strong in perl).
+
+> Let us know if you come up with something to transition from the other
+> format. Another option would be writing a ikiwiki plugin to support the
+> TWiki format. --[[Joey]]
+
+> Jamey Sharp and I have a set of scripts in progress to convert other wikis to ikiwiki, including history, so that we can migrate a few of our wikis. We already have support for migrating MoinMoin wikis to ikiwiki, including conversion of the entire history to Git. We used this to convert the [XCB wiki](http://xcb.freedesktop.org/wiki/) to ikiwiki; until we finalize the conversion and put the new wiki in place of the old one, you can browse the converted result at <http://xcb.freedesktop.org/ikiwiki>. We already plan to add support for TWiki (including history, since you can just run parsecvs on the TWiki RCS files to get Git), so that we can convert the [Portland State Aerospace Society wiki](http://psas.pdx.edu) (currently in Moin, but with much of its history in TWiki, and with many of its pages still in TWiki format using Jamey's TWiki format for MoinMoin).
+>
+> Our scripts convert by way of HTML, using portions of the source wiki's code to render as HTML (with some additional code to do things like translate MoinMoin's `\[[TableOfContents]]` to ikiwiki's `\[[toc ]]`), and then using a modified [[cpan HTML::WikiConverter]] to turn this into markdown and ikiwiki. This produces quite satisfactory results, apart from things that don't have any markdown equivalent and thus remain HTML, such as tables and definition lists. Conversion of the history occurs by first using another script we wrote to translate MoinMoin history to Git, then using our git-map script to map a transformation over the Git history.
+>
+> We will post the scripts as soon as we have them complete enough to convert our wikis.

+# OpenID
+
+I just figured I'd edit something on the page with my OpenID, since you've implemented it! --*[Kyle](http://kitenet.net/~kyle/)*=
+
+> Kyle, If you like openid, I can switch your personal wiki over to use your openid. --[[Joey]]
