We've just released a new, much more friendly look for the v2 API, along with some useful new features. Check out the new docs at { your wiki .pbwiki.com }/api_v2/
Based on Tim Laubach's suggestion earlier today, I've built a new mechanism for some API ops to have op-specific keys. The first of these is for the AddUser op. As an example, you can create a form which includes an API key which is able to add 'read' users to your wiki. Then you can have people sign in on that form and they'll be added to your wiki's roster as readers. There are some really interesting directions this sort of mechanism could go in, and we welcome your input and feedback.
Take a look and have fun! Nathan Schmidt / CTO, PBwiki

D'oh, thanks! I based the new layout on templates from our upcoming redesign of the admin/settings interface and didn't notice the differences. That'll be fixed on our next deploy, and should be harmless in the mean time.
