Clear message

If you miss a feature, have a neat idea or any other suggestion, please put it here. To discuss the merit of the planned extensions from MoinMoinTodo or ideas presented here, please use MoinMoinDiscussion. See ExtensionGuidelines for a set of rules that should govern MoinMoin development.

Your ideas always welcome here...

General:

TopicMaps
Versioning (via CVS), optional (not hi-prio, the current versioning works quite nice)
Change control? (checkin-checkout support for files?? This starts to get into the realm of workflow management tools... but it'd sure be nice!)
HierarchicalWikiWiki's (grouping of different projects)
Possibly make it a webserver (advantage: configuration is kept in memory)
- Consider Mod Snake: http://modsnake.sourceforge.net/ -- it allows one to write Apache modules in Python.
- or use asyncore.py, a select()-based server-module used by Zope.
Local anchors and links on a page
Maybe add edit locks with manual breaking & timeouts.
At least warn the user if a page was opened for editing within the last x minutes.
WantedPages (a list of not yet created WikiName links)
remove the information at the bottom of the page. I have not seen this on another wiki and it is confusing. example-- config=, total= imports-
- this is a testing wiki
Page background images? #PRAGMA BACKGROUND maybe.
tables with lists inside cells? lists with tables inside listitems? tablecells that span multiple lines? Not very probable, because too hard to implement, and also leaves the "easy wiki markup" realm.

todo.org has quickhelp on the edit page:

wikiname == WikiWord and [[nonspaces]] (digit and kanji are available)  
http://, ftp://, news://, mailto: automatically linked  
list(3 spaces and *)  
list(3 spaces and +)  
'' italic  
''' bold  
{ { {, } } } for <pre>  
empty line for <p>  
---- for <hr>

ModularizeForReuse - this is happening right now
IdeaForSurveyPolls
HTML escape - '<html>' tag on a line by itself switches on raw html processing until turned off by '</html>', I know this isn't in the "easy wiki markup" realm but sometimes it's really useful eg converting existing docs, more complex tables etc. I have patches against 0.4 .. will add the feature to 0.5 and post a patch soon. Alexei
- Write a parser (see MoinMoin/parser/*.py) for this
Move color management into moin_config.py rather than spread all over default.css.
A way to list pages that have no references to them. Zombies as the Erlang Wiki calls it.
A macro that expands to the current date when the page is submitted. So that one easily can insert it in aid to others that follow the conversation. Maybe something like [[.sig]] that will expand to whatever the UserPreferences is set to.

Security (against the WikiNature, and possibly not needed when we have versioning):

Some kind of access authorization, via pages with a special WikiName
Lockout-Lists, like IRC channel bans
A grant/revoke scheme, much like advogato (different right levels/checkboxes, can pass own rights on to others), with the wiki admin as the root and full rights.
Page approval, see Meatball's ideas page.
other SecurityNeeds may come up in different environments

This is what is left from Piki-Todo:

Should have a way to attach images to uploaded pages.
Implement Edit-Copy as in OriginalWiki. http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?MoreAboutBackupCopies
http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?FederatedWiki
Show most-often-read pages.
Fix atomic-rename and locking of editlog on NT.
Merge implementations of Full-Search and Title-Search
Full-Search should also search titles
At the top (or bottom), show the last 5-10 pages you visited so you can quickly move around.
- Sounds like a good idea, depends on UserPreferences though.
