Thanks Sergio.
My wiki is on the farm (http://patternlanguagenetwork.myxwiki.org/). Does
that mean its a virtual wiki, and I cannot have programming rights? That
means I can't write or install any groovy code, and can't access
$context.context. Very limiting!

the adminstration panel does not include a column
for "programming". How
do
I grant a user programming rights?
That appears only in the global rights (not on space or document
rights), and only in the main wiki (virtual wikis can't have programming
rights for the moment, for security reasons).

You can quickly install a standalone distribution on your computer,
where you can write the scripts you need, testing that they work, then
you can put them on the public wiki and ask an administrator to review
and save them.

You can write velocity scripts with no limitation. Groovy can allow
you to do dangerous things which include creating security holes on
myxwiki.org, stopping the machine or using all CPU. This is why it's
not allowed by default on a farm.
As Sergiu said we could allow it on a case by case basis after
reviewing your script but that's exceptional. Always try to use
Velocity instead.
Thanks
