I'll try that, thanks for pointing out!

Something like I know from Joomla (JACL Plus):
http://www.gigasize.com/get.php?d=nt52dj9vpvb (you have to type a CAPTCHA on
the right and you have to wait 30 sec. before you can download the file,
sorry)

So you want us to add lots more of nasty adds everywhere? (just kidding but
> that page is just full of it! :))


I hope you found the PDF ;)
If not, you can download it
here<http://88.198.238.100/jaclplus1.0.9usermanual.pdf>(but only a few
days).

* A "secret" URL (ie. for the member-page) like Google-Calendar

Exactly. Maybe comment-rights (with a CAPTCHA)..?

For my case it would be only for the member-page. Maybe others could use it
for other things too. Maybe one could just activate this option in a
checkbox or so...?

Too bad I can't program myself  :(

As soon as I'm more familiar with xwiki, I'll certainly do that.

Thanks for the fast and detailed answer!

PS: I know developers like mailinglists, but as a user I personally would
prefer a forum...  ;)
