-=Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware=-
||A tightly-integrated, full-featured, open source, multilingual Web Content Management System|by Marc Laporte, Project Admin
|__Confoo2010__, Canada||

!!What I'll talk about
* Mass collaboration and the Wiki Way
* Tiki Wiki+CMS+Groupware
* The Tiki Model

* 2 audiences
** When/why you should pick Tiki for your next project
** How you should look into the Wiki Way and the Tiki model to make your own project more collaborative

!!Mass collaboration
What are the most important volunteer mass collaboration projects in the history of humankind?

!!Wikipedia
{img src="https://tiki.org/display216"}

!!Wikis: what for?
*Wikipedia
*Documentation
*Collaboration > flexible, simple freeform project management
*Corporate Intranet or extranet
*Great for unstructured content, can be structured with categories and tags
*Effective document workflow

!!Why a wiki?
Give someone a fish and you feed them for a day.
Teach someone to fish and you feed them for a lifetime.

Add that knowledge to a wiki
And countless people will be able to learn on their own

And share their knowledge
And many will feed their families

!!Because email doesn't scale
{img src="https://tiki.org/display225"}

!!What happens when...
*...you apply the Wiki Way to software development for over 10 years with over 250 code contributors?
*...dogfooding is a core value?
*...everyone collaborates on an integrated code base?

!!Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware
*Tightly Integrated Knowledge Infrastructure
*Combination CMS + Wiki + Groupware

*Over a million lines of code (including 3rd party libraries)
*A new code commit every two hours
*"This is one of the largest open-source teams in the world, and is in the top 2% of all project teams on Ohloh."  source: http://www.ohloh.net/p/tikiwiki/factoids/
*But mostly...

!!Hundreds of built-in features

* Over 1000 settings/options in the admin panel!
* As far as we know, the Open Source Web application with the most built-in features. Other popular apps have a different model: small core + loads of functionality in 3rd party add-ons.

!!But...
*No hunting around to find the best 3rd party module
*No needing to re-install 3rd party modules at every upgrade, hoping they all still work!
*Because, in Tiki, everything is built-in and developers collaborate on and extend features, instead of just cooperating around a core (when they are not just outright competing...). And upgrades are easy!
*Do you have two wiki pages for the same thing? No. Why would it be so for features?
*More later about the model, let's describe some features!

!!Permissions & groups
* Users can be in any number of groups
* Groups can be included in groups
* Registration system
* Over 200 permissions, which can be:
* System-wide (global)
* by item (object)
* by category  (workspaces)

!!Wiki engine
*Powerful wiki syntax
*Powerful version history and diff engine
*Book and table of content
*Email notification of changes
*Advanced plugins
*Advanced translation synchronization

!!Tracker & form generator & reports
*Create custom application
*Bug tracker, application forms, contact forms, etc.
*Can create reports in wiki pages
*Multilingual
*Can link to other trackers
*20+ field types: text field, text area, checkbox, numeric field, drop down, radio buttons, user selector, date and time, image, category, email, auto-increment, Google Maps, computed field, attachment, etc.
