Currently 3 out of 20 of our registered users are registered [[MediaWiki]] developers, which makes our percentage of developers among users '''15%''', which is likely the highest figure any public MediaWiki installation can boost so that is an good incentive to try to adapt MediaWiki for our use over other wikis. However they might just be here ''because'' we are using MediaWiki, so, it is important to make clear that one of the things the [[R&D Wiki]] is doing is ''choosing'' what technology best fits our [[hardware requirements]] later. | Currently 3 out of 20 of our registered users are registered [[MediaWiki]] developers, which makes our percentage of developers among users '''15%''', which is likely the highest figure any public MediaWiki installation can boost so that is an good incentive to try to adapt MediaWiki for our use over other wikis.

There are three leading candidates, and a few dark horses listed afterwards. | There are three leading candidates, and a few dark horses listed afterwards. It seems likely that we'd ask those who want to be [[Consumerium developers]] to work on [[wikitext standard]]s and on soliciting and forwarding [[end user feedback]] better, starting with our own [[MediaWiki modifications]] requests. Consumerium users should not have to do anything but all these here. Similar pages for [[TikiWiki modifications]] and [[MoinMoin extensions]] can be created, and which one meets our needs can be more of a competition. In most cases, the features that must be ''added'' are different for each package, since they start with different feature sets. | ||

Dark horses include [[VeryQuickWiki]] (a [[Java wiki]]), [[UseMod]] (only advantage is that it dumps [[XML output]], very very very important until there is a real [[wikitext standard]]). Also [[Microsoft wiki]] will likely be out eventually, and some [[peer2peer]] options relying perhaps on [[XForms]] later. | |||
