Wiki Test
This is a test of plone's wiki, I hope.
If everything works well, you will be able to edit this.
So far, I am less-than-impressed with plone. Then again. I am hard-core old school. You edit files with vi, then you upload with ftp. Voila! This CMS new-fangled stuff is for people that don't know how to use a computer.
Vatch das blinkenlites.
Plone is not the end all and be all of CMS. Allowing anonymous ftp uploads is fraut with problems. Plain text passwords in-the-clear, protocol that doesn't pass through firewalls easily. Then again, you would be happy if you couldn't bitch.

WHAT A POS!
It *required* a subject? WTF is that! There is no subject. I don't need a subject! But NO... Plone wants one. Not even LJ requires a subject.
I got around it by entering a single space. Effectively, there is no subject, but it is there.
Oh, and the reply-to, it does not add a Re: with the previous subject.
So underimpressed.
---
PS: It deleted the subject, and is demanding a new one. So I am going to use Re: with no whitespace. That should bake its noodle. And the default list of subjects? Plain silly.
Even more underimpressed.

The wikiis completely broken. I can't edit nor add a page. The old pages are in a format that the new system does not seem to understand. There is a a lot of meta-data about this stuff.
This is not giving a good impression of plone. I admit, I am predudiced against it. Something has to be very remarkable to get over my predjudices. I will admit to them, though.
See, I know there is a better way. That way is edit with vi, and upload via ftp :)
Actually, ssh(scp) nowadays. Or just ssh in, and vi the live page. We never make mistakes, right?
If you do, you roll back. That is what cvs/rcs/svn/darcs is for.
