 Thank you for taking the time to respond to my email.  Time does not matter

 I had a look at the Cwiki project on sourceforge:

 A wiki which is easy to extent and customize with focus on access control
 and user administration written in perl.

I think we are not talking about the same project here. It is ciwiki
(with an i after the c). Follow the link I sent in my last email
[1][2]. Ciwiki is, i quote: Written in C, requires less than 1 MBytes
of RAM.  (not perl).

 Cwiki appears to be an attempt to make a wiki for non-trusted user
 environments.  There are many open-source wiki projects that already take
 that space, and one of Didiwiki's best features is its simplicity.  Cwiki
 has not been updated since '08, so it stands pretty level with Didiwiki when
 it comes to activity of development.

 I will continue to try looking for Amigo's Didiwiki source, but the
 murgalinux website is down at the moment (
 https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/puppy-71/main-puppy-linux-forum-down-status-716456/
 ).

I have attached the changelog of ciwiki. You can see that it includes
all the modification done by Amigo. And the last commit dates from
about a year ago.

Cheers,
 Ignace M

Hi William,

First of all, sorry for the huge delay in answering your report. It
completely went through my email filtering..

True.

 A much improved version was released on the PuppyLinux forums for their distro
 that adds new features, namely:
  * Ability to delete pages via web UI
  * An index page listing all didiwiki pages, even those 'orphaned' ( not 
 linked
 to by others )
  * An edit preview capability

 See http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=47185

The URL is not available anymore. Do you know if it is available elsewhere?

 The Debian 'didiwiki' in my humble opinion should adopt user Amigo's 
 variation.
 As far as I know there are no other forks of Didiwiki and no features have 
 been
 removed in Amigo's '0.8' version, so it should be safe to do so.  The only
 other option is just to leave it as it is, stale at 0.5.

You can also provide patches for it to evolve. ;)

 Didiwiki is such a great piece of personal wiki software and it deserves some
 attention.  It is great for home LANs where permissions/security ( or the lack
 thereof in DidiWiki ) are not a problem.

Indeed it is.

Tell me if you are able to get a hold of the new version you were mentioning.

Regards,
 Ignace M

There now is a fork of the project, named ciwiki, that seems to be
based on the Debian patches, and Amigo's work [1].

Personal lightweight wiki based on DidiWiki. Upgraded to accept text
and highlight color, image resize and video (youtube, dailymotion...)
embedded. Written in C, requires less than 1 MBytes of RAM.


I will look into it, and may be file an ITP and package it for Debian.

Cheers,
