[Scons-dev] SCons Wiki Status

William,

bitbucket's underlying method is a hg repo.
There's a link in the upper right labeled "
https://YOUR_USER_NAME@bitbucket.org/scons/scons/wiki"

In general I expect 99.99% of files to be edited in the wiki on the web
page.
But for the case of this highly inlined set of pages (ReleaseHOWTO) the
only way I could figure to re-assemble them was with MarkdownPP.
At least for now.
I expect to get the pages down to a much smaller set and there after
(unless there's very good reason to do so), just use the web editor to make
changes.

-Bill
