ProWiki

My interest here is mainly for research into the state of the art on Wiki technology; TWiki is well-reputed to be one of the more interesting systems out there. I'm gradually developing my own system, which has some similar ideas but goes in a different direction, focusing more on the structured data inside the Wiki itself. The prototype is called ProWiki, and can be found at http://jducoeur.org/wiki.cgi?ProWiki -- feel free to go poke around.

I'm beginning work on "Querki", the second generation of this idea: a Wiki designed specifically to work well with structured data, built on top of a SQL database. If you're interested in getting involved with that down the line, drop me a note -- once I have the basics in place, I'll probably open that up as a SourceForge project or something similar...
