DistributedWikiForum

This idea is not a merely theoretical one. You can see and work on one example in its earliest phase: [SeedWiki:DistributedMathSongsWiki].

Who knows similar, possibly full-flegded examples, to learn from?

Benefits:

• avoids the GodKing role
• builds on the strengths of each of its component Wiki
• provides richer start-up context
• activates a community search for an existing solution

Drawbacks:

• The current InterWiki infrastructure is in an early state, that complicates the interlinking, especially the AccidentalLinking functionality.

I guess you mean Wiki:InterWiki.

No, the author really means the forum (seen as community aspect), dispite the absence of a unifying engine . In the meantime we can use the available intermediary tools to compensate for the lack of a DistributedWikiEngine. An AnnotationWiki is one way to build a DistributedWikiForum. Thank you for the hint, causing me to reformulate the intro of this page -- fp
