WikiEngine: looking for co-developers

Hello,

In searching and comparing WikiEngines, (and mimicing some), I've thought of modularisation, and noticed most wiki engine's don't expose the inner workings of parsing all to much, and in general only allow a bit of configuration to set up storage and the website.

So I started on a 'WikiEngine' project, a library that would do the work that needs to be done for a wiki, but exposes as much as possible through interfaces to connect to, implement, use...

As it turns out, there are three parts to all this exposing:

* parsing data into display-ready data (generally from text with WikiSyntax to HTML), for now I've used XML to store and structure the regular expressions to do the work.

* storing the data for the pages

* getting data to and from the storage and the wikiEngine for display and editing

I've been granted a SourceForge project to develop it under, but for now I'm rather lonely there. So perhaps you would be interested? Or know anyone that might be interested? I'm open to suggestions, feature requests, and ofcourse help!

http://wikiengine.sourceforge.net/

Glad to hear from you
Stijn Sanders

Re: WikiEngine: looking for co-developers

Creating a new wiki is fun, but do we need yet another wiki engine? How about joining forces with a wiki that has a thriving community and make that even better? Or help wiki engines talk to each other?

Re: WikiEngine: looking for co-developers

Well, yes exactly! It's not a new wiki. It's a library to build any wiki with you like. Or perhaps even export data to and from wiki's! By defining what happens with data using XML and regular expressions, you can make wiki's communicate, or make more than one thing work with the same wiki data. (I'll list WikiCreole with those to make a WikiParseXML for, I'm was looking into TWiki lately)

I've seen some time ago a Java library/something for wiki building - http://www.radeox.org/space/start smile
