I'm hopeful that the entire working group will actively help grow and maintain the group's wiki to document the progress and the collective wisdom of the group. Since I find editing the pages one at a time in a Web browser somewhat tedious, I thought I'd share a pointer to mvs, a CVS-like command line Perl tool that I use to create and edit mediawiki pages. The short of it is that I do: > vim New_Page.wiki > [create New Page's contents] > mvs update New_Page.wiki > mvs commit -m 'initial edits' New_Page.wiki to create the page [[New Page]] on the wiki. Or > mvs update UseCase^Existing.wiki > [edit UseCase^Existing.wiki] > mvs commit -m 'added implementation details' UseCase^Existing.wiki to edit the page UseCase:Existing.wiki. (Because my operating system is unhappy with colons in filenames, I hacked mvs to do a translation back and forth for '^' to ':'.) Check it out here: http://search.cpan.org/~markj/WWW-Mediawiki-Client/bin/mvs I've made a number of local edits to my copy for things like handling namespaces (as above) and handling authentication domains, so drop me a note if you are interested in more detailed help getting mvs setup.
