Let me clarify.  When I say "roll my own" I mean literally make a new
Wiki system from the ground up custom tailored to exactly the role
SVLUG wants.

It comes from the web design philosophy you taught me about avoiding
cookie-cutter, off the shelf solutions because they can be insecure.
My profession is programming, so getting down and dirty with PHP 5 and
MySQL doesn't scare me.  I can see it scaring other people, but it
doesn't scare me.  I know, I'm weird.
