There are a number of wiki that that allow public readonly access. For one, there is SnipSnap (http://snipsnap.org). I've recently began hacking on SnipSnap to freeze some of its warts off. I ended up choosing SnipSnap because of its decent feature set and language (Java; please no Java-ain't- Open-Source jabs :-) I just happen to like java, and, well, it's easy to sell to customers...but back to the story). I have a hacked up version of Snip running here (http://mutt.rcfile.org:8180/snipsnap-dbv/space/start) if you want to kick it around. You can log in with member/member to see it from the RW side. Be aware that I am likely to be hacking this thing to death this weekend, so if you get errors it's just me working something out. And don't put anything of value in there--I wipe the db out fairly frequently... My only coplaint thus far with Snip is that development seemed to be kind of slow. This is probably due to the fact that a company "owns" the project and nobody has bothered to insist on contributing (and getting some community dev. momentum). Of course, it could be that Snip is a horrible piece of software, but I'll know the state of things soon enough :-P BTW, If you (or anyone else) decides to try Snip, please do get your feedback/wishes to the developers. Feel free to funnel those things through me, if you'd like, because I might already have the problem/feature-request on my getting-shorter-by-the-day TODO list. And as soon as the developers get their new svn repository up, I'll start submitting my changes. cheers. b (holy crap, it's amazing how much one will type when his brain is synched in to the topic at hand... sorry for the verbosity to those without interest ;-)) -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
