* --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
* When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page. For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work. (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed relative to the inlining page.)

-ikiwiki should support utf-8 pages, both input and output. To test, here's a
-utf-8 smiley:
-
-# ☺
-
-Currently ikiwiki is belived to be utf-8 clean itself; it tells perl to use
-binmode when reading possibly binary files (such as images) and it uses
-utf-8 compatable regexps etc.
-
-utf-8 IO is not enabled by default though. While you can probably embed
-utf-8 in pages anyway, ikiwiki will not treat it right in the cases where
-it deals with things on a per-character basis (mostly when escaping and
-de-escaping special characters in filenames).
-
-To enable utf-8, edit ikiwiki and add -CSD to the perl hashbang line.
-(This should probably be configurable via a --utf8 or better --encoding=
-switch.)
-
-The following problems have been observed when running ikiwiki this way:
-
-* If invalid utf-8 creeps into a file, ikiwiki will crash rendering it as
- follows:
-
- Malformed UTF-8 character (unexpected continuation byte 0x97, with no preceding start byte) in substitution iterator at /usr/bin/markdown line 1317.
- Malformed UTF-8 character (fatal) at /usr/bin/markdown line 1317.
-
- In this example, a literal 0x97 character had gotten into a markdown
- file.
-
- Running this before markdown can avoid it:
-
- $content = Encode::encode_utf8($content);
-
- I'm not sure how, or what should be done after markdown to get the string
- back into a form that perl can treat as utf-8.
-
-* Apache "AddDefaultCharset on" settings will not play well with utf-8
- pages.
-
-* CGI::FormBuilder needs to be told to set `charset => "utf-8"` so that
- utf-8 is used in the edit form. (done)
