No, since what I wanted wasn't covered there. I need to:

a) mirror the wiki between two sites
b) have the wiki be in a subversion repository at one of those sites.

This should be readily doable with a rsynch script, but my first test went
horribly wrong. As far as I can tell, I've done something to prevent Php's
session variables from working correctly, but I'm darned if I can figure out what.
