It’s been in the pipeline for a while. In fact, I should have done this in 2006 ;) Still, now it’s 2009 and I’m happy to hereby announce Couchwiki.org:
“WikiCouch is open to anyone and everyone. It is in keeping with the philosophy of inclusion and open hospitality. We believe in decentralized control, self-moderation and that everyone has something valuable to contribute.”
- Available under the Creative Commons ShareAlike Attribution license.
- Open for editing to anyone. You don’t have to log in – but it’s appreciated if you do – you can also log in with OpenID.
- Independent from the official CouchSurfing organization, but supportive the CouchSurfing community.
- Very soon: a version in French and in other languages if requested by the community.
- We have registered several domains, and there will be a discussion about the domain name where all participants are welcome to join.
- Several nice extensions are installed, and if needed I’ll be happy to install more.
- The costs of running a wiki are very low – to me. No worries about that, I’m happy to take care of the technical and financial aspects of the server.
- In the future we’ll have XML dumps for downloading.
Let me know if there are any issues. And… Enjoy! guaka 01:34, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
