All this talk about wikis [1] got me thinking: "Can we create a wiki in
Erlang?"

Well, I took CouchDB, ErlyWeb and decided to see, if it's doable. It is.

You can check out the code at <http://code.google.com/p/sew-wiki/> It's a
proof of concept more than anything else, but it may be fun to play with
and to build upon.
Description/installation/requirements/limitations/troubleshooting are all
in the README file

It's not that easy to install (since, besides Yaws it requires CouchDB and
Perl. And a recent Erlang/OTP version as well), but once it's up and
running - it's nice and fast (can't say for sure, but my internal feeling
is that it would be slightly slower on a LAMP stack)

There's nothing to see, really, as all it does is add/edit/delete pages,
but I like it Smile

Unfortunately, I'll have less and less free time in the weeks ahead, so
don't expect me to add anything in the TODO file in the immediate future,
but I do hope to expand it's features further

There's currently no demo site because it's not stable enough (see TODOs
and comments to see why) and there's no security built in. But still...

Oh, by the way. At it's present state sew is, like noe [2], a nice starting
point for those willing to start with ErlyWeb.

Now only if I could get noe and sew to planeterlang... It timeouts on me...
