I've just released pmwiki-0.6.3 with a few changes--some may be medium
sized changes for some sites, depending on the amount of customization 
performed, most are minor or non-issues for existing installations.  
Here's a summary:

* The $HTMLHeaders variable that appeared in the template files has now
  been replaced by <!--HeaderText--> (for consistency with <!--PrintText-->).
  Also, the headers are now generated from the $HTMLHeaderFmt[] array
  instead of the PHP $HTMLHeaders variable.  Existing templates should 
  be modified to specify "<!--HeaderText-->" in place of "$HTMLHeaders"; 
  however, to make upgrading easier this release contains a workaround 
  so that $HTMLHeaders in template files continues to work.  This 
  workaround will likely be removed in some future release so go ahead
  and fix templates soon.  :-)

* A new $PageLogoFmt variable has been introduced that allows local
  customization of the HTML output for the logo without having to
  create an entirely new template.

* The code that generates the PmWiki.EditQuickReference has now been
  moved into the $PageEditFmt variable.  What this means is that local
  customizations to $PageEditFmt, either in a config.php or in a template
  file, will eliminate the EditQuickReference text unless it is
  explicitly specified.  Thus, if you currently have a configuration file
  that sets the value of $PageEditFmt with
     $PageEditFmt = "<form ...> my edit form </form>";
  you will want to change this to read
     $PageEditFmt = array("<form ...> my edit form </form>",
       "wiki:$[PmWiki.EditQuickReference]");
  if you want the EditQuickReference to continue to display. 

* A similar change has been made for $PageUploadFmt and the 
  UploadQuickReference.

* Bug fixes: 
  -  The search text has been modified to get rid of an extraneous 
     <div> in the output.
  -  The default target for clicking on the logo has been fixed.
  -  PmWiki no longer loses the contents of pages if a disk full or other 
     error occurs while attempting to save an edited version of the page.

* The per-group customizations now automatically add the stylesheets
  'pub/css/local.css', 'pub/css/$Group.css', and 'pub/css/$Group.$Title_.css' 
  to the output document if they exist.

* WikiAdministrators can now customize the AsSpaced functionality to control
  how WikiWords are converted to spaced format by setting an alternate
  function in $AsSpacedFunction.
