Wiki Evaluation Form
This is the format for evaluating wiki technologies. It is intentionally quite simple. There are three section - software information, dependency information and requirements fulfillment, each with explanatory notes. Evaluation forms should follow this layout and be posted to website-discuss.
Software
Include the name and version of the software being evaluated, with references to the website. For example;
Software name: MyWiki
Software version: 1.0.1
Website: www.mywiki.org
Dependencies
List any dependencies the software has and include the name and version of the required software used for the evaluation. For example;
Required software: MySQL
Version: 5.1.4
Required software: Apache Tomcat
Version: 6.0.14
Requirements Fulfillment
