seeking article writer

Don Marti asked me if I'd like to write an article about ikiwiki for LinuxWorld.com, but I don't have such an article in me right now, and thought I'd see if someone else is interested in writing it. Here's Don's request:

I'd be interested in getting a tutorial article on ikiwiki. Would you be interested in writing one, or do you know someone who is? We have an Artistic Immortality Clause, so you would keep the copyright and could use anything you write as part of the project docs. I'm especially interested in the lightweight workflow aspects, such as using a wiki as a bug tracking system.

stylesheets

Some people may consider ikiwiki's default look to be a bit plain. Someone on slashdot even suggested perhaps it uses html 1.0. (Yes, an ikiwiki site has survived its first slashdotting. With static html, that's not very hard..) While the default style is indeed plain, there's more fine-tuning going on than you might think, and it's actually all done with xhtml and style sheets.

Stefano Zacchiroli came up with the idea of adding a css market page where IkiWikiUsers can share style sheets that you've come up with for ikiwiki. This is a great idea and I encourage those of you who have customised stylesheets to post them.

I'm also always looking for minimalistic yet refined additions to the default style sheet, and always appreciate suggestions for it.
