Yes indeed. Perl is used in the config script, as you saw it, and failpass is used on it to warn the user if he failed to confirm his new wiki administrator password. > Why do you use a perl script for config ? Is it for historical reasons ? Yes, indeed. This script was written in Perl by a previous maintainer, and I did not feel the need to rewrite it, as I think it is easier to maintain such a script in Perl, because it contains a real logic, contrary to the other maintainer scripts, roughly. -- Tanguy Ortolo
