Is this list really as low-volume as it appears?  Since I joined on Sunday 
I've seen precisely three postings to it, two of them from me.

Am I asking in the wrong place?  Is there somewhere else I can get help on 
using PHPwiki?

Any helpful advice gratefully received - I'd really like to be able to use 
this software, but in the absence of effective documentation, or somewhere I 
can get help when the documentation fails, I'll have to give up and use 
something else instead :(


Thanks,


Antony.
