Thanks for the supportive response, Patrick. Of course you are right, from an educational perspective, your recommended approach tends to be most effective, in my experience also.
My problem is: i do have business need for a Wiki with all the typical functionality -anything less would likely not be acceptable- and i would like to have that implemented in technology that i will be able to maintain myself ultimately (if not right away). This for me rules out many of the most popular options: e.g. Media Wiki, PBwiki. - anything not written in Python, which is all i want to work with right now. I have considered MoinMoin, and also Zwiki -having used the latter pretty extensively in the past with fair results, i like the product, but am still rather intimidated by the Zope framework, which i've never really grokked. This MVC paradigm makes good sense to me, OTOH, and since web2py does such a good job of teaching that and drawing one into the relevant code... Well, so here i am! So, yeah: i will be hacking around, and probably working thru that >70min blog-building video over the next week or few (a lot of code to grok in there, but it looks very well commented -for comment styling alone, even, it looks like a great lesson- thanks for that, Mangu!)... And as i am stumbling my way along to better understanding, i will be having to launch a wiki in some other framework, i suppose (probably a turnkey service, so i don't have to think about the tech at all, just use it to manage content). Hopefully the latter pursuit won't distract me too much from the former (can't let work get in the way of fun, now, can we? :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
