I've just released a preliminary version of PmForm, a forms
handling recipe for PmWiki.  It's now available from

  http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/PmForm

It requires pmwiki-2.2.0-beta46 or later.

When completed, PmForm is intended to provide:
  - creating forms with wiki markup to send email
  - create forms to build new wiki pages according to a
    template
  - add/insert content to existing pages according to
    a template (e.g., for comments, voting, etc.)
  - build forms to update page text variables and other content
  - issue tracking (PITS is being redesigned to use PmForm)

Most of the code is in place, but it's still "in development"
and so may change over time.  The code for creating mail forms
is fairly stable, however, and can probably be used immediately.

The basic information for creating mailforms using PmForm is at 

  http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmForm/MailForm

Comments, questions, and any changes/improvements to the documentation
are welcomed as always.

Thanks!

Pm
