Indeed, for users that are not logged in, a file cache is enabled as described here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:File_cache
It seems it doesn't expire the category page.
You can that yourself by adding ?action=purge to the page url. I just did that and now the page shows with the new tutorials.
Maybe I should install the purge plugin:

What do you think?

Argh. If I read that correctly, having the extension would be useless because it would put the burden of clearing the cache on the user, who may very well not even know he should
... so the shell script solution may well be the right one!??! I'd assume most of our wiki readers are not logged in - only editors have a reason to create an account - so this is a problem.

I think I succesfully disabled caching for the category page. Please, test and let me know your experiences.
