+## More dynamic `rootpage` parameter?
+
+I prefer to use a current year, month and day to archive my blog posts, for example
+`post/2007/11/12/foo-bar-baz` path is better for me then `post/foo-bar-baz`.
+Unfortunately it seems that `rootpage` parameter is very static. Is it a chance
+to make it more dynamic? Now I have to use `svn mkdir` command to create
+appropriate subdirectories by hand.
+
+I think that you could add builtin functions or variables, for example `current_year()`
+or `$CURRENT_YEAR` to usage inside `rootpage` parameter. Something like for Manoj's
+calendar plugin. Then my `rootpage` parameter could be like
+`rootpage="post/current_year()/current_month()/current_day()"`. Another good hints
+are welcomed ;)
+
+What's your opinion, Joey? I hope it's also useful for another ikiwiki lovers :)
