[sakai-pmc] rWiki and xWiki > Re: Talkin' Sakai 11

While we were at Apereo Camp I mentioned work that took place at Marist in 
2010, in collaboration with rSmart, to experiment with integrating xWiki (
http://www.xwiki.org/) into Sakai.  The project was undertaken because of 
what seems to be heavy use (or at least interest) by teachers to have 
wiki-like capabilities and the feeling that rWiki was not likely to be 
further developed.  Although this was more of a proof-of-concept we were 
successful in deploying the integration.  It is likely that updates to 
xWiki at this point may make this integration even easier (LTI?).

Folks can review all of the prior work and code at: 
https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/SAKDEV/XWiki+Integration

Although the person who worked on this, Adam Hocek, is no longer at Marist 
I'm sure there would be interested in continuing this work if others were 
interested.

Yes, the Perl reference is opaque (not made by me), but this is a
concern I have, especially given the wiki tool's widespread usage.
