-Ikiwiki is _not_ yet formally released, although it's very close to being ready for a release now. If you really have to have it: `svn://svn.kitenet.net/ikiwiki/trunk`
\ No newline at end of file
+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.
+
+# tarball
+
+The best place to download a tarball of the latest release is from 
+<http://packages.debian.org/unstable/source/ikiwiki>.
+
+# packages
+
+If using Debian (since 4.0), or Ubuntu (since 6.10):
+
+        apt-get install ikiwiki
+
+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.
+
+Or download the deb from <http://packages.debian.org/unstable/web/ikiwiki>.
+
+While this deb has been developed on Debian unstable, it should also work
+on stable, although to get the CGI stuff working on stable, you will need
+to upgrade to a newer version of libcgi-formbuilder-perl, `3.05`.
+
+There is also an unofficial backport of ikiwiki for Debian 'sarge', provided by
+Pawel Tecza, at <http://gpa.net.icm.edu.pl/debian/>.
+
+Also. FreeBSD has ikiwiki in its
+[ports collection](http://www.freshports.org/www/ikiwiki/).
