I guess it doesn't matter as much WHERE the data is as long as it's 
reachable by people who need it. So there's no much need of moving pages 
back and forth, cos people are likely to disagree as to where to put them 
anyway.

Better concentrate on writing pages for specific types of people (readers, 
authors, admins, markup designers, skin designers), link those into the 
main Cookbook page and there you have it :)

The one point where the location of the data actually matters, is when Pm 
packages the distributions. I guess Christian wanted to say that 
instruction on internal functions might belong in the distribution (since 
the PmWiki group gets packed in wikilib.d)
