xowiki xowiki:
A xotcl-based enterprise wiki system with multiple object types

XoWiki is a Wiki implementation for OpenACS in XOTcl. Instead of
trying to implement the full set of Wiki markup commands of systems
like MediaWiki, XoWiki is based on a rich text editor and focuses more
on integration with OpenACS (e.g. categories, general comments,
ADP-includes). XoWiki combines aspects of wikis (ease of
page-creation) with aspects of a content management system (revisions,
re-usable items, multiple languages). Furthermore, XoWiki allows one to
define different types of links such one could define book-structures
(where a navigation structure could be built on the fly) or glossaries
with different kind of word relationships (like synonyms,
etc.). XoWiki supports pages in multiple languages and is localized.

Some features:
  - cross language links
  - inclusion of ADP pages
  - nesting of Wiki-pages
  - large set of includeable content (includelets)
  - search
  - tags
  - categories
  - RSS
  - weblog
  - podcasts
  - notifications
  - web 2.0 gadgets (digg, delicious, my yahoo)
  - audio embedding
  - different appearances (template_file)
  - book-structures
  - prototype pages
  - import/export
  - virtual presence
  - analysis of collaboration networks
  - forms
  - named/unnamed pages
  - various security policies
