Re: [xwiki-dev] Google Soc Project Release - P2PXWiki

Congratulations Bikash for this work.. I was a great project during this summer to write the architecture of this.. During this project, some interesting features have been added in the P2PXWiki plugin: - there are new replications XML-RPC apis (getAllPagesAsXML and getAllPagesAsXML since date XYZ) which are used to replicate wikis - a JXTA conversation module has been build to allows XWikis to communicate using a XML-RPC over JXTA api - a DNS registry API has been build allowing peer XWikis to advertise their Wiki to the community - the architecture of what's next has been made which would allow to bypass firewalls and replicate XWikis to many peers What we could do with it quite soon with a little bit of work: - with a central registry setup (I'm going to prepare this on a test machine at my home which has a fixed IP), we could make personal Wikis easily attainable if people open up their firewall port. It's not much more than a dynamic DNS but it has the capability to then bypass firewalls. - firewall bypassing of HTTP requests would probably be an interesting next priority, so that even xwikis behind firewalls become accessible. The central registry could be the default node to relay the request. - we could work on allowing replication of a personal wiki to any user on the JXTA network. - we could work on allowing replication to a central wiki If there are any developers that are interested in this project we can open a separate project mailing list and XWiki.org space to discuss this project.
