James/Mark,

Thanks for the feedback!

Best regards,

PS. The data-portability element for is something I hadn't thought of so
thanks.

Hello WSG Group,

Our company have asked me to look into potential Wiki software for our
corporate community (intranet-style). The person driving the Wiki has
suggested using Jive's Clearspace (
http://www.jivesoftware.com/products/clearspace).

With web standards in mind:

1. Has anyone used Clearspace and have any comments?
2. Any standards-related issues when rolling out a corporate Wiki solution?
3. Any other favoured Wiki software they could recommend and why?

Any thoughts, comments or ideas would be great.

The NZ Govt Webstandards wiki uses MediaWiki 
(http://webstandards.govt.nz/index.php/About_this_wiki) and that seems 
to be pretty good. I'm sure they've set it up to comply with (at least) 
the NZ Govt Web Standards and Recommendations but you can ask them at 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  ;-)

Hi

Note sure about which one is the best for standards support - they all have 
their little oddities that are usually down to the developers' interpretation 
of "what is correct". Most of them have this odd wiki "markup" so you type in 
 headline  instead of headline - which stupidly makes the 
entering of text harder than if someone just learnt the basics of HTML...

The only other thing I'd suggest with a wiki is that you *will* want to get 
the information you put in out again sometime in the future. Choosing a wiki 
that has a good API to get content out is a wise idea so that you don't have 
to screenscrape.

HTH
James

[WSG] Wiki's and standards

2008-06-05 Thread Rob Enslin
Hello WSG Group,

Our company have asked me to look into potential Wiki software for our
corporate community (intranet-style). The person driving the Wiki has
suggested using Jive's Clearspace (
http://www.jivesoftware.com/products/clearspace).

With web standards in mind:

1. Has anyone used Clearspace and have any comments?
2. Any standards-related issues when rolling out a corporate Wiki solution?
3. Any other favoured Wiki software they could recommend and why?

Any thoughts, comments or ideas would be great.

best,
Rob
