I'm _very_ much looking for suggestions and other comments, especially from people who have experience with different wikis and similar collaborative tools. Eric Wiki Requirements Candidates ---------------------------- - OSI approved license - Easy to build/install/deploy - Easily indexed by the opensolaris.org search facility - Flexible look-and-feel (custom styles?) - Unicode support - Extensibility (APIs, etc.) * Allow easy use of local text editor (e.g. vi or emacs) * ... Authentication and spam-prevention * Authentication and authorization should utilize the opensolaris.org registration database * LDAP * ACL * Page permission Community Support * Large, active online community (mailing list(s), IRC) * Bug tracking Usability * Page history and revision diffs * Tool bar * RSS and Atom feeds * File attachments * Footnotes * Page redirection * Categories * Name spaces * Interwiki links * Internal links (free links) _______________________________________________ website-discuss mailing list website-discuss at opensolaris.org
