Hello,
I am a developer at Marist College. We are an active member of the Sakai (sakaiproject.org). Sakai is an open source Collaboration and Learning Environment that supports many tools for collaboration. There is currently a wiki in Sakai called rWiki based on Radeox wiki. rWiki is somewhat limited and there is interest to investigate an alternative wiki option that we might integrate with.
Ok. XWiki is an option that we are considering and wanted to reach out to the
XWiki community to see if this was something of interest. Sakai is also developed in Java and makes sense to use XWiki's Java API. I think at this point in time we would like to see if a similar integration with another product has been done before and also to see if we could get support from the XWiki community for issues that arise during the integration process.
I'm sure that XWiki devs would be happy to answer your questions and point you to the relevant resources when it comes to integrating it with Sakai. There are 3 potential level of integration that I can see: - Embed XWiki as a whole into Sakai with a custom-built interface - Expose XWiki through gadgets and keep the wiki separated from Sakai - Use XWiki's rendering + WYSIWYG editor modules to build a simple wiki inside Sakai Which of those options sounds best to you? As for similar integrations, I remember a member of the community integrated XWiki with magnolia, and there's also part of an integration with eXoPortal if that is of any help. Guillaume
Any feedback would be appreciated.
- Adam
