MindTouch has already been providing a similar capability for some time now, but with a more seamless and flexible experience to what WetPaint is doing with Injected. An example is Shelfari. RWW writes about this here: http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/wiki_business.php With MindTouch the customers owns the data and is not being billed based on how many people view the content. @Panos

I think that was a very smart move on their part. They were extremely limited in what you could do, because everything had to reside on their servers. Now, only your data resides on their servers. Of course, I think that's still wrong, but it is a good move in the right direction. :) Absolutely! I think that was a very smart move on their part.

I think you are in the right way! I also believe that wetpaint's latest announcement about embedding their wiki (content and functionality) in your own web properties is also a great milestone for a cloud collaborated platform. Any plans to offer similar functionality from DekiWiki in your long term plans ? Panos Thanx guys, for the info.

As the storage model evolves, you'll be able to store and query data across data sources since Deki Wiki is architected as a distributed, cloud collaboration platform.

I had a quick look on the extensions you mentioned but what I understand is that you can present, filter, browse structured data that have been created, entered, maintained somewher else, in another application. What I am looking is the capability of creating through DeikiWiki structured data right there without going somewhere else. Imagine an extension for creating and browsing/searching/viewing employee data from a company directory fully maintained through DekiWiki. Where are these data will be stored ? How forms that manipulate these data will be created in DekiWiki ? Most probably I am missing sth big here. Thanx in advance, Panos Aaron thanks for the prompt response and info!

This is precisely what Deki Wiki is intended for: providing a connective tissue between enterprise systems, web-services, Web 2.0 apps, and the likes and using the Wiki interface as a canvas for presenting data and operating on data. There are some "modules" that are floating around the community, but MindTouch will begin rolling out modules on a regular basis in the near term. Put simply, there isn't exactly a wealth of these. Some that come to mind are Mantis, Trac, Jira, and SVN modules for software development teams. If you have suggestions about modules you would find particularly valuable please let us know. Although there is an install guide for Windows at www.opengarden.org (just search for Windows or post to the Forums) MindTouch does not, yet, officially support Windows installs. We will be adding this in the next release. This is definitely not out of scope.

I have recently discovered DekiWiki and I am amazed with the capabilities of the platform. I am not sure if this is the right place to post a couple of questions ... but anyway. - Just wondering if there are any available modules/extensions offering more structured intranet functionality such as calendars, polls, phone directories etc including their data entry functionality. So far I can see that DekiWiki supports publishing and manipulation of data stored somewhere else, except its own pages but what about creating those structured data through DekiWiki? Is it out of its scope ? - And also I am interested in installing DekiWiki in a Windows environment. Any pointers to related documentation ? Great post.

I do recommend checking out AideRSS.com as another layer of awesomeness too. I need to spend some time with DekiWiki, though it may be over my head technically. Either way, love what you guys are doing! Very cool! I do recommend checking out AideRSS.com as another layer of awesomeness too.
