I suggest www.kwiki.org, if anybody has any better idea let me know
Ok, looks fine to me. It's a start, unless someone knows of a better Wiki package... so, where to
host this?
The following are available:
embperl.net
embperlwiki.org/com/net
embperlcommunity.org/com/net
embperldoc.org/com/net
Embperl.net is nice because it's short and simple, and the ".net" suffix has a nice connotation of a
"network of people" (I know, I know, .net was supposed to be for ISPs, but that hasn't really held
true for a while now). On the other hand embperlwiki.org is perhaps more descriptive, but longer and
maybe a little harder to remember.
Other ideas welcomed. I guess I could host it as a subdomain under one of my existing ones, but I
think it would be better and more flexible, and more easily transferred to someone else, if we put
it on its own domain. Failing that, how about embperlwiki.perl.org? Do the perl.org folks let people
do that, when the server is on someone else's IP address? I have no idea. In any case, it should be
a domain that is not too tied to an individual, so that it can be passed on easily.
I am happy to register whichever domain is decided on, and host it on my server to get it started. I
can also start the documentation effort, as I have time.
Incidentally, wouldn't it be nice to have a Wiki package written in Embperl, and then host the
Embperl Wiki using this? Kinda self-referential. I don't really have a good handle on how complex a
Wiki package would be. I feel like it's just a content management system with anonymous edits and a
database backend, with version control. Probably a lot more to it than first sight, as usual. Does
anybody think there's any good reason to roll our own as a showcase for Embperl? Are the other Wikis
out there missing something that would be good to have?
