This is a multipart message in MIME format. --=_alternative 00701A81C1256C8B_= Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Peter, Typo3.com is a "generic" Content Management System (under GPL as well). It does NOT yet include the functionality you mentioned such as > markup syntax, revision tracking, and visual difference features Therefore, if something is needed "immediately", then Typo3 could not meet the demand. However I would recommend everyone to have a look at Typo3, you can also find screenshots on the site to get a better idea. With the extension manager it has become a platform of great potential. One could easily envision Twiki features being integrated as extensions. I don't know Twiki, so I'll check it out. ---------------------------------------------- Moritz Schroeder [email protected] Berlin Peter Bojanic <peter-EEO+rgje17aw5LPnMra/[email protected]> Sent by: process-admin-6zGkXsw2EZWGJGYlWa3Ukdi2O/[email protected] 10.12.2002 20:21 To: [email protected] cc: process-6zGkXsw2EZWGJGYlWa3Ukdi2O/[email protected] Subject: Re: [Process] Wiki update and plans On Tue, 2002-12-10 at 13:42, [email protected] wrote: > Sorry, my suggestion might be a bit late, but have you considered > other open source CMS platforms, such as typo3.com?

Not sure if everyone is aware, but TWiki is in fact GPL. Not sure about all the features of Typo3 but TWiki's markup syntax, revision tracking, and visual difference features are all terrific for collaborative document management. I've used it on a couple of my recent projects with great success. There are also a variety of modules that can be plugged into TWiki, including calendars, drawing applets, etc. I think it's a good selection for its intended purpose.
