Wiki tech
Discuss wiki implementations, technology, specific tools & techniques. Note: there's a "wikis" group, which seems more about the social aspect (adoption & such)
Moin on #WebFaction without exposing "index.cgi" in the header (updated recipe now supprots #openid) - http://forum.webfaction.com/viewtop...
Ugh. Converting some docs from Moin wiki to reStructuredText, and I'm cringing from the reST :( #python
Thoughts on the Universal Edit Button (http://universaleditbutton.org/Univers...)? Worth supporting? Should it use rel="edit" type="text/html" instead? (via http://friendfeed.com/dewitt...)
@DeWitt Clinton: Surprised that, given the ascendancy of python (and app engine), we haven't seen major apps like MediaWiki and WordPress ported over yet. (via http://friendfeed.com/dewitt...)
Pfffft. /me says "Just Use Moin" :)

Announcing a group for discussion of wiki implementations--technology, specific tools & techniques. Note: there's a "wikis" group, which seems more about the social aspect (adoption & such). This one has a much more technical bent. http://friendfeed.com/wiki-te...

If you're involved with wiki tech, you should be aware of Creole, an attempt to create a standard language across wikis. Like all compromises, it's far from perfect. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
I like creole for writing small posts or notes, but very often I miss the extensibility restructured text.

Peter, no doubt about it, ReST is the king of all wiki text formats (if a bit overwhelming at times). I even prefer Markdown to Creole, really. The attraction of Creole is not that it's a great language in itself, but that it's one where there's a chance of agreement across implementations.

Learned that for overwriting attachments in MoinMoin, you need to have "delete" as well as "write" and rights on the respective wiki page. Makes sense, but threw me at first.
My personal favorite wiki implementation is Moin: http://moinmo.in/ . I even get involved in hacking it.
