MindTouch release at OSCON

On Wednesday at OSCON (booth 911), MindTouch is releasing DekiWiki – a MediaWiki fork which delivers a highly extensible, scalable and interoperable wiki. MindTouch DekiWiki is being released under the GNU General Public License (GPL), with libraries under LGPL. Built on MindTouch’s Dream framework, it is a service oriented architecture (SOA) that allows distribution of both data and _behavior_ across any device and platform, employs AJAX extensively to enrich the user experience, stores in XML, with Apache’s Lucene for search indexing. DekiWiki affords flexibility in the creation of highly distributed composite applications as well as providing an unmatched off-the-shelf collaborative space for business and organizations of all sizes. Stay tuned to www.opengarden.org for more details…

Look at the app, dig into the code, and see for yourself why this is going to cause fireworks.

Keep your eyes on OpenGarden for updates. Granted, I’m a little biased since I’m employed by MindTouch, but seriously, DekiWiki and Dream are two fantastic technologies!

    I was just going to ask to see if you had any architectural models, diagrams, etc. that you could share, but then decided it would probably be a bad idea unless it’s Open Source (what with the current job and all that).
