XoWiki

XoWiki is a wiki implementation for OpenACS implemented based on xotcl-core. Instead of trying to implement the full set of wiki markup commands in 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, ad-substitution of template variables). XoWiki combines aspects of wikis (ease of page-creation) with aspects of a content management system (revisions, reusable content, multiple languages, page templates).

XoWiki provides functionalities of enterprise wiki systems (such as combining structured with unstructured information, providing security policies, etc.). XoWiki is reused in several other packages such as XoWiki Content flow, S5 or  the Learning Content Tool.

Package Specification Summary for Package: xowiki

Summary: A xotcl-based enterprise wiki system with multiple object types
Description: <pre> 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, reusable 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 includable 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 </pre>
