[Moin-user] beginner questions

[Kai Jaeger]

This is unbelievable! I tried this four or five times and never
succeeded in finding anything, and because I was under time pressure
then (I had a problem at hand!) I decided to write to the mailing list
instead which in 99% of the cases provided a solution to my problem.

Why is that not improved?

Anyway, thanks a lot Roger
Kai

Depending on how adept I become with this, I may want to setup wikis for my college students, and in that instance I'll want to go the route of a multi-wiki setup.  I don't yet know if I'll prefer developing my contribution to those pages locally on my machine and transferring them to a server, but probably not initially.  When it comes to course pages, I think I'll have to set up a multi-wiki MoinMoin on a server without having root privileges.
