TikiWiki Groupware
I was browsing through various open source groupware solutions and came across TikiWiki 1.8. TikiWiki describes itself as the following:
Tiki CMS/Groupware (aka TikiWiki) is a powerful open-source Content Management System (CMS) and Groupware that can be used to create all sorts of Web applications, Sites, Portals, Intranets and Extranets. TikiWiki also works great as a Web-based collaboration tool. TikiWiki is a multi-purpose package with a lot of native options and sections that you can enable/disable as you need them. It is designed to be international, clean and extensible. TikiWiki incorporates all the features present in several excellent wiki systems available today plus a lot of new features and options, allowing your wiki application to be whatever you want it to be--from a simple wiki to a complex site for a whole user community with many intermediate steps.
While I haven't tested it out extensively, TikiWiki looks like it could be a terrific solution for small, distributed groups needing a flexible and open platform to facilitate networked communication and teamwork. Another impressive aspect is the skinnability of TikiWiki, as several customized installations demonstrate.
So, have any of you tried TikiWiki out recently? If so, what's the verdict? Are you using it still, or was it scrapped and/or replaced with something else?
