Re: [CODE4LIB] Liebert MCR / Other air conditioned racks

Re: [CODE4LIB] Wikis

We are very happy with Confluence at UCLA. It supports the wiki metaphor of a pool of labeled/tagged documents with a hierarchical directory-like structure, so you don't have to choose between the two models. Although I usually edit pages in the wiki markup view, many of our users prefer the
