thanks!

the feedback this far has been very positive, and there's been quite a
few good contributions from several contributors.  makes me wonder why
I haven't done this before (could it be that infogami didn't exist last time
I looked into edit-through-the-web stuff ? ;-)

yup.  infogami keeps a full history.

just add a [[link]] to a page (or comment), and click on the link to get an
offer to create the missing page.  or just hack the URL.  see:

    http://howto.infogami.com/createnewpages

however, I would prefer if we could keep the current overall structure intact
for now.  (but adding new pages for other purposes is perfectly okay, though;
also see the "if you want to make major changes" note on the front page).

the subsections should absolutely be linkable in the finished python.org
product, but that can be automated (either in the yet-to-be-written export
scripts, or by some wikipedia-style infogamibot maintenance droid... (1))

1) dear lazyweb/lazynet: does anyone have some time to spare on figuring
out how to log into infogami from a simple python script.  standard library
only, preferrably.
