The FAI wiki is built on [Atlassian *Confluence*|http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/]. Confluence is an enterprise wiki which enables groups to quickly collaborate on projects online. |
|
The essential features of a wiki are that pages are designed to be easily editable, and a historical record is kept of all changes. The assumption is that the more people who have edit permissions the better because there is then a greater chance of information being loaded into the wiki and being accurately maintained once it is there. Stacked on top of that are lots of additional features, for example logged-in users can create personal RSS feeds or email notifications for when content is added or changed. |
|
Confluence is organized in *[spaces]*. Spaces are indicated in the menu on the left by a globe icon. Spaces are organized by FAI commission. A main commission space may have an unlimited number of sub-spaces. |
|
Confluence is also organized to have *users* and *groups*. Users log in, and the wiki knows which groups they are a member of. |
Permissions to view, create pages, edit, administer Etc. are organized by space and user group. |
