One of the goals of this effort is to relax the requirements that everything to be tightly integrated into a single large application. If Alan's delegation/federation is successful, there is no need to convert something like mediawiki into a component... Genunix's wiki shows that mediawiki as-is is good enough. If it can be easily skinned, use external auth, and [the other E-requirements], then, even if it has to live as wiki.os.o, things should still be OK. -John _______________________________________________ website-discuss mailing list [email protected]
