have you actually tried it? i've setup sites with both of the recipes listed at bryght.com. it is barely ok and absolutely sucks compared to a real wiki like dokuwiki or mediawiki. attention to detail is what makes these apps sing. deliving a 70% solution doesn't impress anyone when 100% solutions are freely available.
You're right that it sucks...and I'm not entirely sure why. Diffs obviously still look terrible...but in the other wikis I use, I don't actually use diff functionality. I think it's all the extra cruft of node stuff, perhaps. I think an AJAX, edit-in-place functionality would almost turn all of Drupal into a wiki-like experience, depending on permissions. Of course, the main areas where I find myself using wiki functionality is for collaboratively working on a document.
i'd love it if someone took the lead in improving our wiki solution. preferably a user experience focused person.
I'd support this. -- Boris Mann Vancouver 778-896-2747 San Francisco 415-367-3595 SKYPE borismann http://www.bryght.com
