Things have been delayed a bit. Reni is the point person on this project (with me as a second), but both of us have been very busy with other stuff for the past few months. I have just recently finished much of my part (at least initially). And hopefully we can get this part done soon. >>> 7) CVS - not as a backend, but as an integrated tool. > > Picture this: You have a RecentChanges-like page that tracks CVS > commits.

Our first priority is getting doing things the "WikiWay", so the primary user authentication system is based of meta-data on a page with the name of the user. Groups are similar: members are in a list on a page with the same name as the group, and a group is enabled by being list on a primary page. PagePermissions will also be meta-data. I am also trying to abstract things so DB, LDAP, XMLRPC, etc versions of elements can be written in the future without forcing a major code revision. jbw |
