thanks for the info. looks like plugin installation is more developer
oriented, not really an easy administrative task. i was hoping for
something like a jenkins plugin setup where it's a one click install type
of thing. not really a problem.

using file system based storage (or database), and there's more than one
instance of jsp wiki, say for rolling upgrades or load balancing, is there
a way to notify other instances of changed content and/or index needs to be
updated?
