Hi Janne,

I'd thought -dev was for developers *of* JSPWiki, not just developers
using it, with -users for the latter. But okay, in the future, -dev
for this kind of thing.

Thanks -- I'll give that a try then. I was trying to avoid creating
a WikiEngine, or was only making the parse feature available when
Jetty and the WikiEngine were running in the background, but that
all broke when I upgraded Jetty since now the whole wiki is now
running in a different JVM than Ceryle so they can't talk directly
to each other as in the past (now it's a long distance romance).
