A blank new kwiki2 works.  So it may be the conversion process, or it
may be one of the plugins I'm using:

	Kwiki::Display
	Kwiki::Edit
	Kwiki::Theme::Basic
	Kwiki::Toolbar
	Kwiki::Status
	Kwiki::Widgets
	Kwiki::RecentChanges
	Kwiki::Archive::Rcs
	Kwiki::Revisions
	Kwiki::UserPreferences
	Kwiki::UserName
	Kwiki::Search
	Kwiki::Edit::RequireUserName
	Kwiki::Notify::Mail

	Kwiki::Htaccess
	Kwiki::Attachments
        Kwiki::PrinterFriendly

The last three are not in the list that a blank new kwiki makes. A

  kwiki -remove Kwiki::Htaccess

gives me the error:

  Can't locate object method "plugins_file" via package "Kwiki::Config" at /usr/local/kwiki/lib/Kwiki/Command/V1.pm line 125

I could debug all this stuff, but I think I will continue on with
TWiki 4.1 and let somebody else debug kwiki 2.0.  Sigh.  It would have
been nice if kwiki 2.0 "just worked";  perhaps in a few weeks it will.
