+
+As with WikiForNow, CMFWiki is an expedient, to enable communication
+in and about our development processes.  We're going to continue to
+use it, but our development efforts will be invested in generalizing
+the useful features for all relevant CMF content, rather than in
+supporting and developing the wiki.  What this means is that we will
+not be maintaining CMFWiki as a supported product.
+
+That said (for those of you who've read this far!-), we *are* making
+it available in the CMF section of our cvs repository, as the CMFWiki
+subdirectory.  Like i said, it's unmaintained, and we have to keep
+work on it to the minimum necessary to keep it usable for our own
+purposes.  Among other things, this means that any distributions
+beyond CVS (eg, tarballs) will have to come from the community.  We
+make no guarantees about pursing fixes, etc.
+
+One important note for use with Zope pre v2.4.  CMFWiki was developed
+for that version, and depends on a new feature where every
+authenticated user intrinsically has the 'Authenticated' role.  In
+order for the non-anonymous regulation category to work with pre-2.4
+Zope, all your users have to have this additional role added.  (If
+someone were to contribute a hotfix to make this automatic, we might
+include it with the CMFWiki product.)
+
+Finally, for any of you running "WikiForNow wikis",
+http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/WikiForNow , there's a
+conversion script, CMFWiki/Extensions/migrate.py .  See the docstring
+for the do_site function for instructions.  (I haven't yet tried
+running it as an extension method, just from the zeo/python prompt,
+but i expect it will work either way.)
