I'm looking at ikiwiki both for my personal site but also as a
|
|
|
|
|
team-documentation management system for a small-sized group of UNIX
|
|
|
|
|
sysadmins.

* my edits should appear either as 'Jon' (if I've used

|
|
|
[[tips/untrusted_git_push]]); 'jmtd.net', 'jmtd.livejournal.com',

|
|
|
|
or once upon a time 'alcopop.org/me/openid/' or 'jondowland'.

I gave a talk at the [UK UNIX User's Group](http://www.ukuug.org/) annual
|
|
|
|
|
[Linux conference](http://www.ukuug.org/events/linux2008/) about organising
|
|
|
|
|
system administrator documentation. Roughly a third of this talk was
|
|
|
|
|
discussing IkiWiki in some technical detail and suggesting it as a good piece
|
|
|
|
|
of software for this task.

I am also working on some ikiwiki hacks:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2009-10-23 13:17:19 +02:00
|
|
|
* [[todo/allow site-wide meta definitions]]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I am mostly interested in ikiwiki usability issues:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* [[bugs/the login page is unclear when multiple methods exist]]
|
|
|
|
|
* [[bugs/backlinks onhover thing can go weird]]
|
|
|
|
|
* [[todo/CSS classes for links]]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following I have been looking at, but are on the back-burner:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2009-05-18 12:35:52 +02:00
|
|
|
* an alternative approach to [[plugins/comments]] (see
|
|
|
|
|
[[todo/more flexible inline postform]] for one piece of the puzzle;
|
|
|
|
|
<http://dev.jmtd.net/comments/> for some investigation into making the post
|
2009-10-02 23:31:40 +02:00
|
|
|
form more integrated); possibly also [[todo/pagespec to disable ikiwiki directives]]
|
2009-05-18 12:35:52 +02:00
|
|
|
* a system for [[forum/managing_todo_lists]] (see also
|
|
|
|
|
[[todo/interactive todo lists]] and <http://dev.jmtd.net/outliner/> for the
|
|
|
|
|
current WIP).
