Hey PBwiki people,

We've just released a new, much more friendly look for the v2 API,
along with some useful new features. Check out the new docs at { your
wiki .pbwiki.com }/api_v2/

Based on Tim Laubach's suggestion earlier today, I've built a new
mechanism for some API ops to have op-specific keys. The first of
these is for the AddUser op. As an example, you can create a form
which includes an API key which is able to add 'read' users to your
wiki. Then you can have people sign in on that form and they'll be
added to your wiki's roster as readers. There are some really
interesting directions this sort of mechanism could go in, and we
welcome your input and feedback.

Take a look and have fun!
Nathan Schmidt / CTO, PBwiki

Hey Tim,

D'oh, thanks! I based the new layout on templates from our upcoming
redesign of the admin/settings interface and didn't notice the
differences. That'll be fixed on our next deploy, and should be
harmless in the mean time.
