Not easily.  You have to continue to make regular files and other cgi 
scripts available somehow, and attempting to 'guess' which URLs are part 
of the wiki and which point elsewhere is a pain.  We had a lot of rewrite 
rules in the old site and it was rather fragile.

Carl tried for a day or so; it's harder than it should be.
