What is a federated wiki

playing with: Smallest Federated Wiki

new user page with json source code

had to fix some path structures and development version is running or deactive ;-)

I like the forking aspect:

• imagine: no more disputes at WV or any other wiki
  • A makes a page, B imports
  • B changes something
  • A can decide if changes are imported

software versions, dependencies

• sfwiki-express 0.0.1 (last commit: 4848fba97b1dd0a0966f973fcfee431d1f5dc143)
• node.js 0.6.7
