[en][Announce] Domain-name lost, official-site relocated

https://sourceforge.jp/forum/forum.php?forum_id=7857

We have lost the ownership of the domain name 'pukiwiki.org' by
our mistake. It _IS NOW_ owned by another person, who is not
related to the 'PukiWiki Developers Team', and it is now for sale.
So we changed the URL of the official site.

What is PukiWiki?†

http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?PukiWiki

PukiWiki(originally comes from "PHP" and "YukiWiki") is a Web-based tool which enables not only the webmaster but also visitors to add, delete, and modify the pages without restriction. Since PukiWiki is a Web-based tool, you can use it from your browser without additional software. It may resemble other bulletin boards in the sense that visitors can leave messages, however, while bulletin boards only allow you to leave messages, PukiWiki also allows you to change the design and contents of existing pages.

PukiWiki can be used for many purposes. Please visit Use PukiWiki/the Purpose of Usage to know how other people are using PukiWiki.

Mr. yu-ji (known as sng) created PukiWiki, and continued its development until the release of version 1.3. With his retirement, maintainership was passed on to the PukiWiki Developers Team.

Although started as a fork of WikiWikiWeb clone YukiWiki*1, PukiWiki is widely accepted as an independent wiki engine today.

You can freely expand PukiWiki's functionality by adding Plugins. Besides the official plugins bundled with the PukiWiki distribution package, there are many unofficial plugins also available. Please refer to Pukiwiki/Plug-in Specification(jp) to develop your own plug-in.

Installation†

Download the Pukiwiki archive file from this site.
Decompress the archive on the local or target system. (NOTE from 1.4.4: Don't forget the 'p' option of tar, to preserve default permission)

   tar pzxf pukiwiki1.4.x.tar.gz

   unzip pukiwiki1.4.x.tar.gz

Edit pukiwiki.ini.php to reflect your environment.
- Default data in English is in the wiki.en dir, so please rename wiki.en to wiki.
- Default language settings are for Japanese and EUC-JP, change the LANG & SOURCE_ENCODING constant in lib/init.php as follows.
```
   define('LANG','en');  // Select 'ja' or 'en'
   define('SOURCE_ENCODING','ISO-8859-1');
```

chmod 777 diff
chmod 755 face

Using edit_auth†

To stop robotic/indiscriminate SPAMming for your public site quickly, how about:

Using $edit_auth (HTTP basic-auth for editing) to all pages
Share a common account with users by noticing the user/password (Some sites notice it at FrontPage or MenuBar)
You(wiki administrator) can easily change the user/password.
