because of notifyemail fails with some openid providers, I have been struggling with finding ways of being notified of changes to pages I want to watch here.

the workaround I found so far was to join the #ikiwiki channel on freenode, and set the following "hilight" in irssi:

/hilight -channels #ikiwiki  -word tips/monitor_page_changes_through_IRC

this will watch for any change to this page. -- anarcat

hello anarcat, I'm editing your page! -- micah
