I can't use archzoom tarballs on my windows system (probably due to too long
directory names or outdated WinZip tool), however I applied the changes from
request.py and wikiutil.py. It now looks good, I haven't found any more
problems.
The only thing that frequently annoys me is that the CGI version does not
display proper errors if anything unexpected happens, I always have to add a
line like
    sys.stdout.write("Content-type: text/plain;charset=ASCII\r\n")
somwhere near the possible code point for debugging purposes.
It would be nice if somebody who knows more about this could modify the CGI
version so that it always displays at least the call stack if something
crashes.

Thanks for your assistance.
Kind Regards,
Robert
