Re: [Slashcode-development] Slash Wiki plugin... Needs a home.

[Gerry G. <ge...@ge...>]

I played around with the Wiki plugin a while back, and although it 
seemed to pretty much work, it wasn't really what I wanted.

FWIW, I found a Wiki with source control back end (SubWiki, uses 
Subversion), and I've been hacking it for a while to generalize it to
HTML and XML pages.  It's in Python, so I had to learn python for it,
but it has come along quite nicely so far.

When I'm not thinking completely straight, I want to adapt this tool 
for use with Slashcode.  The idea would be a versioned content 
management systems for testing and development, then you would upload 
the content to the database as a complete release.  Basically, I want 
the versioned content management system for the "authored" parts of the 
content, but I still want the comment system and fast database 
implementation of Slashcode.
