We have been working on a number of plugins. We've already
significantly modified the FormMailer plugin and have uploaded the new
version (it works, it redirects to another page and some other mods),
have produced a new plugin that munge's plugin paramters into some
HTML code stored in the jspwiki.properties file (it was going to be a
plugin for various embedded videos but now we're using it for all
sorts of stuff) that we are testing before uploading to the wiki and
we've done quite a bit of work on making a forum pluging actually work
correctly. All of these are intended for sharing with the community
and there are several that we've done that will remain private (like
the plugin + perl + other licensed code that we use for producing
print ready PDF-X1As direct from the Wiki) unless we see some demand.
The issue isn't that there isn't work being done but more that there
isn't the perceived demand for more work. JPSWiki just works so how
much does it need changing?
You might be interested to know that most of this plugin work is
fuelled not only for our own needs but for the needs of another open
source project (to build hydrogen fuel cell cars - http://www.40fires.org
) who are priming the pump - its a case of one open source project
feeding another!
