Hi all,

I wonder if it's mandatory -or at least just useful- to support a new
syntax. Unless if you plan to allow phpwiki to support lot's of syntax
(as it support now plenty of storage backend).

Now, if you really want to support an other syntax, I think mediawiki
flavour is almost mandatory as it's a kind of "standard" (many people
know it).

BTW, did you already heard about an exchange format between wiki's ?
I've read few info on mediawiki site months ago but what about phpwki ?

My 2 eurocents !
