The TWiki.Know web uses this category table to set classification, platform and OS version.
  • PeterThoeny - 18 Nov 1998: Internal log of topic save actions to the file data/logYYYYMM.txt, where YYYYMM the year and month in numeric format is. Intended for auditing only, not accessible from the web.
