I'm preparing the write-up myself, obviously. 1) It's a good way to say hello - "you are what you do". There are some companies around us but not many of them have the portfolio. Maybe we're working in the similar area and can provide each other services, outsource some tasks to each other, re-use the code, discuss the business models. Why not to post these success stories on mw.org to advertise yourself and to make the market bigger and bigger? 2) The experience exchange is always good. Maybe the story about the say educational wiki for the Hungarian school will inspire us to make similar project for the Russian school? 3) the answers to some questions can be interesting per se: e.g. if you have the open repository of your extensions and skin, I will try them with pleasure. Maybe somebody will see that they can provide their solutions, that are more sophisticated. > ** > > Regards,**** > > ** ** > > Jack**** > > ** ** > > *From:* [email protected] [mailto: > [email protected]] *On Behalf Of *Yury > Katkov > *Sent:* Tuesday, January 29, 2013 1:48 AM > *To:* [email protected] > *Subject:* [Mediawiki-enterprise] Your success stories?**** > > ** ** > > Hi guys! **** > > ** ** > > Can anybody tell about the success story you've had with MediaWiki? **** > > If you're not a good writer, here is the list of interesting questions.
