<p class=MsoNormal>There are a lot of wikis on clasweb that are mostly pretty
old. For a long time, newer versions haven’t really been possible because
clasweb itself (and apache/php) was so old. Now that the upgrade is complete,
it opens the option of installing more recent versions (still limited somewhat
by php until RHEL6). In the past couple of years, the Computer Center has
developed a more-or-less standard, centrally managed Wiki configuration that I’d
like to propose as the new standard for clasweb wikis. Initially, I’d
like to begin using the new configuration for all newly requested wikis, and
later, we can work through migration of the existing installations to the new
configuration.<o:p></o:p></p>
