Hope you don't mind but I updated one of your sections to include a newly released variant of TikiWiki called LauLima. I kept the entry short, but we have developed it over the last 3 years. Our project is ongoing, but we use it ourselves in student collaborative projects, and while there are still many ways it can be improved and developed, it has many modifications that have allowed us to use it successfully for student collaborative work, both locally and internationally.

Hi Daniel, I am curious about the process you used for transforming FrameMaker docs into this Wiki. What tools did you use and did you convert one page at a time or were you able to batch process your FrameMaker document into several wiki pages? I am planning a huge migration of content and I can't find many people who are trying to go from FrameMaker to Wiki. Thanks --Myles Pflum

Hmm it's quite manual. there are 2 versions:

• Frame to HTML (edit the reference page as to produce only 1 page per document)

Then I use a HTML2Wiki tool, then I fix problems with emacs :(

• Frame to Word

Then I use a Word2Wiki filter that can be installed in word.

Both methods are about equally bad ;)
