ZODB + Traversal Wiki Tutorial

This tutorial introduces a ZODB and traversal-based Pyramid application to a developer familiar with Python. It will be most familiar to developers with previous Zope experience. When the is finished, the developer will have created a basic Wiki application with authentication.

For cut and paste purposes, the source code for all stages of this tutorial can be browsed on GitHub at docs/tutorials/wiki/src, which corresponds to the same location if you have Pyramid sources.
