Why call it ikiwiki? Well, partly because I'm sure some people will find
|
|
this a pretty Iky Wiki, since it's so different from other Wikis. Partly
|
|
because "ikiwiki" is a nice palindrome. Partly because its design turns
|
|
the usual design for a Wiki inside-out and backwards.
|
|
|
|
(BTW, I'm told that "iki" is Finnish for "forever" so ikiwiki is "forever
|
|
wiki". It's also nice to note that ikiwiki contains a kiwi.)
|
|
|
|
Oh, maybe you wanted to know why you'd want to choose ikiwiki instead of
|
|
all the other wikis out there? Unless your personal strangeness
|
|
significantly aligns with [[Joey]]'s, so that keeping everything in
|
|
subversion, compiling websites to static html, and like design [[features]]
|
|
appeal to you, you probably won't.

Hmm, the above paragraph is less true today than it was when I wrote it.
