On my Wiki / Wikka efforts
Working on a Wikka installation - for now only on my laptop Alan, as preparation for a (hopefully) community-supported user manual effort for an on-line forum system.My first focus is on making the process around user accounts somewhat more user-friendly as well as more secure - after all, if we are going to have user accounts with associated rights, we should also ensure those accounts themselves are secure. I'll describe those efforts (and share results) on a UserSettingsAndPasswords page here.
Related to UserSettings and a few other actions, something else I encountered while working on a few user-related actions: I found there are some issues with how email addresses are handled in Wikka; an overview on WikkaAndEmail - some code to be added later. On this page I'll also be relating to some WikiRoles; more on this in the next paragraph.
While working on a re-write of an action, and trying to develop a "clean pattern" for it, some thoughts occurred to me about the various roles people may have with respect to a Wiki. Thinking about the roles made it easier for me to write the code (I'll explain that later); first, here are my thoughts on WikiRoles (updated, in an attempt at clarification). Comments welcome, of course.
More as I get to it...
A little about myself
I've been working in I(C)T since the 1980's although at present I'm unemployed. I live in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and run a couple of websites (won't spam from here unless you want me to). My main hobbies are traveling and photography.If you google for "javawoman" you might find a little more. :)
