So, this is my wiki. It'll be part wiki and part blog, so... "bliki" in Martin Fowler's terminology. (Except he does his with a bunch of scripts to generate a static site and I didn't want to go that route.)

Sample Page For Playing Around#

Here's a dumb page: FooBar

Next Steps#

• Use the versioning page manager, so I can roll back changes if I want to (I'm paranoid that way).

• Document how I got all this done on the Apache JSPWiki Wiki, since at least one other person seems to be interested in my progress. Note: This is done, but in org-mode. Need to:
  • Find a place to inject it into the JSPWiki wiki, and
  • Convert it to Creole.
• (Note: no response to my suggestion that it go in the wiki, so didn't bother converting to Creole. It is jammed into this wiki (at ThisWikiOnTomcat8OrgModeNotes). At some point in the future, maybe I'll write a renderer to handle org-mode files and contribute it to the project (ooh, another ProjectIdea).)

• Make the text in the plain editor just plain black, instead of this harder-to-read gray.

• Pick a nicer font (bigger on desktop screen, not unreasonable on mobile).

• Figure out how to create an RSS/Atom feed.
  • Verify that it shows updates for other pages than Main. (Turns out you have to use the full path to the RDF file, http://web.how-hard-can-it-be.com/wiki/rss.rdf in this case.)

• Figure out how to list a subset of pages in descending order of date last modified Turns out there's a blogging plugin, see above.
  • CategoryBlog, maybe?
  • Saved search??

• Is it possible to add tags to a page, or is it just done with a TagFoo reference?

• This is kind of a far future, but: blog entry name formats are more-or-less hardcoded to ddMMyy format. Perhaps this date format should be a parameter on the WeblogEntryPlugin itself.
  • Also, a way to choose how many paragraphs are in the preview (or all, as is the current behavior).
  • Email thread.

• Figure out how to move my SSD Elastic Block Storage volume to magnetic storage.
