| Re: [phoenix-dev] XWiki |
Hello, A few months ago I sent the proposal below and I was wondering whether any subscriber of the list had taken XWiki in consideration since then for Phoenix. XWiki contributors have already developed an Eclipse based rich client editor for Eclipse since then and Eclipse integration will keep improving. Don't you think the usage of an advanced wiki engine for the whole Eclipse community web site would be of great benefit to the community of users and developers, and would make the infospace much easier to manage than with a CVS/PHP based site?

Hello, I recently discovered the Phoenix project with great interest and I was wondering if you knew about XWiki engine. XWiki is written in Java, licensed as GPL, uses MySQL as its backend and it features mostof the requirements put accross at http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/phoenix-dev/msg00053.htmlHere are a few entry points: * XWiki: http://xwiki.org * Features: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WhyIsXWikiDifferent *Architecture overview: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/XWikiArchitecture * Forge,ObjectWeb: http://forge.objectweb.org/projects/xwiki/At Mandriva we are overhauling the next Mandriva Club community infospace with XWiki. The platform is to be out in June. As webmasterof that new platform, I can tell the platform is both very powerful and easy to use. I believe XWiki is also one of the first "semantic wiki" as custom structure can be added to the wiki resources, which turns it into a great engine for managing knowledge and for building applications rapidly. I copy this message to XWiki team so that they can take part in a potential PhoenixWiki discussion. Regards, Stéphane
