Hi Patrick,
[snip]
Many many thanks in advance! I don't want to
complain about free software and of course
I could "just buy Confluence" instead.
Open source software doesn’t mean everything has to be free. If you need professional
support and help you can get it from several companies sponsoring the development of
XWiki: https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Supporters/SponsoringCompanies/
That actually helps the development of XWiki.
Unfortunately a regular license is way out of budget
for our small organisation and we have outgrown the 10 users you get for the "almost
free"
starter license from Atlassian.
You could also look at the cloud offer from XWiki SAS which is cheaper than Confluence
AFAIK:
http://www.xwiki.com/en/products/pricing
When I first found Xwiki I was so excited it would
support
spaces, only to learn that they were removed again …
No it wasn’t removed. It’s actually the complete opposite: it’s been improved. You now
have the ability to create unlimited depth of hierarchies and with the ability to set
cascading permissions at all levels.
It’s just that we’re now calling this feature Nested Pages and no longer spaces (previous
spaces were only 1 level deep BTW).
And you still have the additional possibility of creating sub-wikis.
Where did you find this info? I’d like to correct it if you found it in the
documentation.
Thanks

Thanks in advance!
