[Moin-user] PageTemplate oddity with moinmoin 1.3.1 as standalone with Python 2.4 under Windows Me

Hi all,

so, I've been playing about with the standalone installation on 
moinmoin 1.3.1 using Python 2.4 under WinMe that I posted about 
yesterday. I'm trying out various administrator features that I did 
not previously have access to.

I've noticed an odd (to my mind) thing about page templates. When I 
define a new template with a name like SomeWikiNameEndingInTemplate 
and then try to create a new page, the newly created template does not 
show up in the available templates list. If I terminate the moin.py 
server process and then restart it, the new template is available when 
attempting to create new pages.

This seems odd to me. (Not a huge hassle, but not the right thing, 
either.) Is this by design? Is there a work-around? Does it apply only 
to standalones? (For the last, I've never tried making a new template 
on a public wiki -- seems bad form to do it just to test. But wouldn't 
that mean terminating the server in order to create new templates?)

I've dug around the help pages and seen no mention. Apologies if I 
missed it. I promise to take any information this post results in and 
put it on the moinmaster wiki.

Best to all,

Brian vdB
