Hello Shlomi and CC'ed list, We have started playing around with IkiWiki on one of our servers. As I see it, there's a drawback of tough installation and possibly annoying maintenance. Not sure if I will have enough time to deal with bugs or problems in a timely manner if we are not to use HaMakor's funds for paid IkiWiki services. The good things about IkiWiki is the ability to edit the wiki online and its plugin system (although I'm not sure what plugins we need).
The alternative is to not shoot myself in the leg by using a Perl system for the job (although Shlomi likes Perl) and use a different solution instead. Two possibles are either making a small compiler-script that converts Markdown/whatever to HTML and version it with git/whatever. This is pretty close to using the second alternative which is something like the Ruby based like "serve <http://get-serve.com/>". The +'s, easier to administer than IkiWiki. The -'s, no online editing. The ?'s - do we want Wiki-like editing on Linux.org.il? or can we settle down with having the sources on GitHub/BItBucket and accepting pull-requests instead of wiki edits? Would like to hear your input, Amir
