I thought about it and changed the behavior of pystaticfile so that
it's more wiki-like.  It seems silly that it only serves static
entries and doesn't connect them together (a la wiki-like linking) and
doesn't allow you to have a directory tree of these static entries.

So I decided to build a wbgwiki plugin.  It's a "wiki" in the sense
that links can be added using wiki-like linking [[topic]] and [[topic
| description]].

It doesn't maintain versions, doesn't allow you to edit files over the
web, and it doesn't allow for collaborative editing--so in those
senses it is not a wiki.

Any thoughts on the naming?  Is "wbgwiki" too much?
