 ###When a request comes in:
  a connection comes in for sipb.mit.edu which via a hack in MIT DNS gets directed instead to PENGUIN-LUST.MIT.EDU. If its on ports 80, (443?), or 444 it gets passed off to scripts (where it's handled by b-m or b-k, whichever).
 
-scripts has a special vhost config (/etc/httpd/vhost.d/sipb.conf) for
-sipb.mit.edu:
-
-        DocumentRoot /afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/sipb-www/web_scripts/wiki
-        Alias /doc /afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/sipb-www/web_scripts/doc

-falling into an exception are served straight out of

+The DocumentRoot for sipb.mit.edu is `/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/sipb-www/web_scripts/sipb`.  This directory contains a `.htaccess` file that causes most URIs to be served out of `web_scripts/sipb/_wiki`, a symlink to `../../Scripts/wiki`.  This directory's contents are static files generated by ikiwiki

 ###For development's sake:
 
 ####How Do I make edits?
-If you want to just edit contents, use the web interface (edit links at bottom of page) or "git clone git+ssh://sipb-www@scripts.mit.edu/mit/sipb-www/wiki.git", make your edits in the mdwn, etc.

 When you commit, ikiwiki should get automatically republished as HTML.
 
+To work on the code surrounding the wiki in addition to the wikitext, clone the superrepo:
+
+    $ git clone git+ssh://sipb-www@scripts.mit.edu/mit/sipb-www/git/sipb-www
+    $ cd sipb-www
+    $ git submodule update --init
