Re: [Mediawiki-enterprise] Frequent requirement - Editing attachments
Maybe an FTP interface would be even simpler? AFAIK MS webdav implementations are very buggy and often hard to deal with. Does Excel have the ability to access FTP? IE definitely can do it, so I think office probably also can...___ Mediawiki-enterprise mailing list Mediawiki-enterprise@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-enterprise
Re: [Mediawiki-enterprise] Frequent requirement - Editing attachments
Of course! And those are properly versioned. Have you ever diff'ed 2 excel files ? Users need to understand the consequences of doing things the easy way People are used to save every 5 minutes, even on share point this completely defeats any versioning.

Most tipicaly, from a documentation point of view, edit in place completely trashes any kind of version management, rendering the whole platform useless. If users need to edit in place, use a file system, and forget about proper versioning. O_o But aren't normal mediawiki articles edited 'in-place'? :) ___ Mediawiki-enterprise mailing list Mediawiki-enterprise@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-enterprise ___ Mediawiki-enterprise mailing list Mediawiki-enterprise@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-enterprise

IIRC, when KnowledgeTree was open source 4-5 years ago, it had a WebDAV interface available. Perhaps someone could use that code to build something similar for MediaWiki. While this is something that is possible, it doesn't exist at the moment. I personally think this would be an awesome addition to MediaWiki.
