Elements of your project look interesting to me because we're also using both Movable Type and MediaWiki for the same reasons as you. The efforts you're making to find what you need are amazing, but I keep thinking about all the others who are making (or trying to make) similar efforts. Some of this is inevitable. But considering that we are one profession, and sometimes have similar goals at least on the conceptual level, I still hold out hopes that more systematic sharing will go on. All the best with your Web site project! Karen, at my library we don’t even have anything along the lines of a Web Services staff!
