I can testify that Lukasz has improved pmwiki-mode quite a bit. Depending 
on what kind of password authentification you use, it might already work. 
It certainly works better with normal pmwiki authentification - I only 
needed Apache BA at the time, so I didn't implement anything more. One 
thing that doesn't work properly (yet) is authentification over SSL.

So I suggest you give the CVS version a try, and just report any bugs you 
come across to Lukasz or me.

PS. Lukasz is primarily developeing for the coming Emacs 22, so some 
features might currently not work as well as they should with Emacs 21.
Similarly, there's not much testing with XEmacs going on, it'll have to 
come later on.
