I will be activating this as soon as it's out of beta. It seems silly in 
my case, since I have so few users on each site, but it's one of those 
vague emotional things separting it from professional packages.

Very happy with my choice of PmWiki as website engine. Yesterday's 
upgrade took less time than making the backups, although I probably 
should update the forms and email recipes.
