[pmwiki-users] RFC: PITS 00701 -- WikiFarm confusion

[Neil Herber]

At 2006-03-15  12:48 PM -0500, DaveG is rumored to have said:
>>* A field is a single wiki with a unique URL. Each field lives in 
>>its own directory.
>I'd remove the first sentence. It adds little. Thus:
>"Each field lives in its own directory, which is usually outside of 
>the pmwiki farm directory."

Except that under my definitions, there is no such thing as a "farm 
directory". There are just fields which together form a farm. One of 
those fields is special, in that the code lives there - the home field.

The fact that the URL is unique is important, because if it is not, 
then why use a farm? If an admin wants to segregate pages without 
creating a new URL, they should be using groups.
