I've seen hostility like this to SMW from Wikimedia and other MediaWiki developers. But nowdays it seems to be diminishing minority. I am mostly concerned about the almost total segregation of SMW from rest of the MediaWiki community. Also about code quality and lack of good developer APIs. >From user perspective it's great software, though it will affect performance if you really use it a lot, except perhaps if you are a hardcore SMW developer who knows to avoid the pitfalls that cause performance issues. -Niklas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Minimize network downtime and maximize team effectiveness.
