+Here's how to get ikiwiki. See [[setup]] for how to use it, and be sure to
+add your wiki to [[IkiwikiUsers]] if you use ikiwiki.

+The best place to download a tarball of the latest release is from 
+<http://packages.debian.org/unstable/source/ikiwiki>.
+
+Installation steps and requirements are listed on the [[install]] page.
+

+[[template id=note text="""
+Note that Debian 4.0 and especially Ubuntu 6.10 contain older versions of
+ikiwiki, there have been lots of enhancements and bug fixes since those
+versions.
+"""]]
