Re: [Zope-dev] the right way to do wiki in zope ?
Anthony, thanks for your comments.
Yup, first call it ZikiSpace ;)
Could do, could do.. :) I'm fond of the word "wiki" though.
This can be done with a Zclass subclassing DTML Doc. Then, have a ZikiSpace folder object which has only one subobject: ZikiBit.
Correct me if I'm misunderstanding - do you mean the folder can contain multiple ZikiBits - subclasses of DTML Doc - each one of which is a wiki page ? Is it better to build a simplified ziki_edit mechanism or should we leverage zope's existing manage_* methods, I wonder. Time for me to get friendly with zclasses!

Yup, a ZikiSpace Object is a Zclass subclassing from DTML Doc which has one subobject - a ZikiBit which corresponds to a WikiBit. This implies that to access a wiki node (ZikiBit) you goto: http://ZikiServer/<ZikiSpace>/<ZikiBit> If you add a ZikiSpace to toplevel then everyone can link to the ZikiSpace by going to http://ZikiServer/mystuff/<ZikiSpace>/<ZikiBit>.

I think we need a ZikiEdit method and disallow manage_ZikiBit because you don't want users editting permissions & other bits. You just want to allow a page of text only.

Ta-ta! I want to add a ZikiSpace to the ZPT for everyone to contrib Documentation. Cheers, Anthony Pfrunder
