[dokuwiki] dokuWiki+phpBB junction

Greetings,

I have heard that a number of authentication means was, most probably,
already implemented. Myself, I have made the dokuWiki+phpBB junction to
be able

- to log in and signup from dokuWiki (creating a valid phpBB user the
way it is created by phpBB itself)
- to assign users to phpBb groups and be able to use those groups in
dokuWiki ACL logic

I have applied a small patch to dokuWiki register() function, to allow a
user to provide password themselves, if they wish. Also, I patched phpBB
(2.0.17), to make it use UTF-8 always. The result looks promising. I
plan to add a derivative from the standard template, using Smarty and
also add tags like

<ifgroup groupname>
</ifgroup>

to provide means to show group-related content.

If there is any interest in the auth_phpbb.php I have made, I can make
it available, along with full description of the way I have made this
simple 'cross-breeding'. I plan to use it for several sites where access
control is required.

With all respect,

Konstantin
