The email aliasing is perhaps the biggest point of attraction for me, but blogging would be a big help too. Our community has voted once before to not allow blogging on-wiki, despite the fact that Wikiversity allows it. Some other items that I mentioned in my first email would also be difficult to do on-wiki: *Ability to host personal information, including images, which are not freely-licensed *Embedded IRC client with access to #Wikibooks, #cvn-wb-en, and #en.wikibooks *Applets and other tools specific to wikibooks (similar to the toolserver, but primarily for wikibooks) --Andrew Whitworth
