Revision: 8979 Author: valhallasw Date: 2011-02-17 21:58:21 +0000 (Thu, 17 Feb 2011) Log Message: ----------- Use Page objects to check for user name equality (PYWP-15)

The Site object checks whether the is logged in by checking equality of user names. When the first-letter capitalization is not equal, this caused the bot to relogin. The check now uses Page objects, so site-specific capitalization conventions are used.
