Trac Wiki converted to Pelican Markdown

This is a dummy landing page for a Trac Wiki site converted to Markdown and fed through Pelican to create a static web site.

See the conversion scripts that produced this for details on the conversion process. Be warned that it's a lot of nasty regular expressions, because nothing other than Trac really understand's Track's Wiki format.

Trac's landing page is always called WikiStart.

Pelican's automatically-generated index is the default Pelican landing page, but we had to move it aside to make room for this one.

For the initial conversion we just use Pelican's default theme. There's a lot of room to adjust the appearance, and a lot of example themes already available for Pelican.

Similarly, we don't do anything with Pelican's "category" mechanism because it has no direct analogue in TracWiki. See the Pelican documentation for details on how to use the category mechanism, or how to disable it completely.

Feel free to clean all of this up, this page is just a placeholder to make it easy to navigate the converted wiki until a human takes over.
