My understanding is that work on WikiWorks has stopped
and that
SmallWiki is the future.
Yes, objects are the future ;-)
- Is it possible to configure the simple file server
(as described at
http://wiki.openskills.net/OpenSkills/Smalltalk+HTTP+Server) to be
able to
do directory listings if there isn't an index.html in the requested
directory (like the WikiWorks FileServerWiki and Apache)?
We are using apache rewrite rules to do things like this. However it
would be simple to add a new structure type that maps to a directory in
the filesystem.
- Is it possible to store page definitions (with
history) outside the
image
(to prevent image bloat and allow page history to be on disk rather
than in
memory)?
Ralph Johnson implemented such a storage-system for SallWiki. See in
the mailing-list archive for discussions about this. I don't know about
the current status and its stability.
SmallWiki 2 will be based on GOODS, an object database. This will be
really cool, because the whole object graph is stored outside the image
in a complete transparent manner.
Cheers,
Lukas
