Maybe this is a silly idea but it would be nice if every wiki page's 
change log was an RSS feed that people could subscribe to. Then, rather 
than parsing through the entire list of users every edit to figure out 
who to mail, moin would just write out a history node in the RSS and 
whoever was interested in it and is subscribed would get it via 
whichever RSS mechanism they choose.

RSS happy,
