You might try subscribing to the PWS list for a while, which is devoted to
technical and non-technical discussion of the Pluggable Web Server and, in
particular, of Swikis. Since it's intended, in part, to support people who
just want to *use* Swikis with little or no Squeak/Smalltalk knowledge, or
with only a *little* bit of such knowledge, it might be more, overall,
useful for you.

I've found that working on PWS is a very nice way to learn
Squeak/Smalltalk. It's nice to have a focused *real* project to guide &
motivate your learning. Right now, there are a couple of people explicitly
climbing the curve, so you wouldn't be out of place at all.

OTOH, general beginner questions are better directed to the main list. I
think it's probably a bit premature to split the main list. One reason the
PWS list works, and is needed, is that it has a clear focus, a natural,
farily large constituacy which itself ranges from beginner's to experts.
