We want to integrate this into pearweb thus we can't use yawiki (well
okey we don't want to use it because of the deps outside of pear,
specially because of yawp)

Authors will be able to choose if they want to use the wiki or not, thus
turning the feature on or off, at least the wiki for X package won't be
created unless the author turns the feature on for the first time.
Authentication won't be a problem, because it will be integrated into
pearweb :)
yaWiki will be probably the base of this, at least a side reference.
