Re: serving additional pages

FWIW.

To make such things easier through extension mechanism (and to
get nice URLs) I've started routing implementation for Roundup
(https://wiki.python.org/moin/Routing). I am not sure if I'll be able to
complete the task - the basic functionality is there
https://bitbucket.org/roundup/roundup/commits/branch/routing
but documentation, tests and extension point for inserting route
rules from extensions are hanging. I may need help with those.
