Hi Vincent,
People who are interested in free xwiki and want to use it as an
experimental tool can download it and play with it. It costs nothing
for them.
As far as I have seen that students and other such individuals seldom
become paying customers. They typically use for project work etc.
I think hosted solution should focus on paying customers only unless
you want to test the scalability of xwiki real time by giving free
access.
Following this reasoning, how does Netcipia (http://
www.netcipia.net)fit
in the proposed schema?
Netcipia is another farm that could be seen as a kind of competitor to
this new
xwiki.org farm. However there are some differences:
* the
xwiki.org farm will be using the default UI (same as XWiki
Enterprise) and the same features
* it'll be supported by the xwiki community
* it'll have latest versions installed at all times
* there's no business model behind this
xwiki.org farm
I think the target is really different. Netcipia's idea is to propose
ways for users to sell their content online whereas this farm will be
more for hosting "intranets"/"web sites".
Anyway the free
xwiki.org farm is not fully decided yet. I'd like to
see more opinions form the xwiki users and dev community about it.
Thanks
