I am an interested bystander. Might I suggest a few avenues to explore? (1) Pier ====== Pier might support a history feature. Read the second bullet in Lukas's announcement: http://www.iam.unibe.ch/pipermail/smallwiki/2006-February/001688.html
(2) Literate programming =================== The concept of literate programming overlaps with the idea of documenting Squeak with a wiki. (a) The tools to include hypertext in Squeak source code seem to be underused. (This under-use was discussed at squeak-dev many times, so perhaps this is not fixable.) Perhaps an interesting longer term project for a student would be to evaluate and implement a way to expose the source code hypertext on the web. Since the documentation is in Squeak, changesets and source control systems always record your initials or name. (I understand that the concept has been proven by John McIntosh and friends: his company already ships Squeak sourcecode in the form of a wiki for iPhones and iPods: http://www.mobilewikiserver.com/SqueakDocs.html I guess they made a captive presentation of the Seaside code browser: http://seaside.st/about/screenshots ) (b) There are currently four demos of executable Smalltalk source code embedded in documentation in this MediaWiki site: http://en.literateprograms.org/Category:Programming_language:Smalltalk (3) MediaWiki =========== David Mitchell wrote: > Are there free providers of MediaWiki to use in the interim? If you can't come to an arrangement with literateprograms.org, and you don't mind advert sharecropping, you could try http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Special:CreateWiki Hope that helps, David _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list Beginners@lists.squeakfoundation.org http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners
