[Dev] potentially handy wiki-fu: embed the 0.5 release date

FYI, here's a potentially useful piece of wiki-fu: you can embed the 0.5 
release date on your wiki page by putting the following where you want 
the release date:

%SEARCH{ "0.5 Release" web="Chandler" topic="ChandlerMilestoneSchedule" 
scope="text" nosearch="on" casesensitive="off" nosummary="on" 
nototal="on" regex="on"  multiple="on" 
format="$pattern(\|[^\|]*\|[^\|]*\|([^\|]*).*)"}%

This pulls the information out of the third column of 
ChandlerMilestoneSchedule where somewhere in the row is "0.5 Release".

Note that at the point in the future when the 0.5 release is no longer 
listed on the ChandlerMilestoneSchedule, but by that time, the release 
date will be known and unchangeable.

There is an example of using the embedded release date at the top of
    http://wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Chandler/DevelopmentHome
