GetMeta:News
edit this, make it better, get wiki
- 11 March, 2007 - To better take advantage of the GetWiki name, this wiki has been renamed to GetWiki, while keeping the name GetMeta as the "metanamespace", or a meta topic area for pages and discussion about the wiki itself. GetMeta:Policy will also be adjusted to expand GetWiki for limited encyclopedia content, primarily relating to the Humanities and Sciences and discussion thereof. Prior to the release of GetWiki:2.0, this wiki will reflect all changes to the underlying GetWiki application as developed. The new XML import wiki will be Wikipedia, rather than Wikinfo, to help grow GetWiki's base articles, before moving to a multiple wiki import in the 2.0 release.
SOHOdb newly Released
- 08 July, 2005 - SOHOdb, an Open Source business database in PHP/MySQL using XML standards, has been re-released under the Creative Commons License and has a new home at SOHOdb.net. The site is hosted by Hostasaurus. The SOHOdb website uses XHTML and CSS standards, and shares GetMeta with GetWiki for technical support and discussion.
Testing Forums for GetWiki
- 23 October, 2004 - Testing is now being done with forum pages, or free-form, discussion-driven pages, where particular articles or site news/bugs is not the focus. Such pages can be used for blogs or even formal discussions. Please participate and post your thoughts on how this works for you. The feature will be added to GetWiki 1.0 soon after a short testing phase.
GetMeta Expanded
- 22 August, 2004 - GetMeta has now been officially expanded to include documents and discussion on any of the diverse topics from philosophy to wikis. Contributors are welcome to share documents and argue points on subjects from Metaphysics to Metaethics, Metamathematics to Metalogic, Metadata to Metawikis.
GetWiki 2.0 Contemplated
- 22 April, 2004 - Though still a ways off, it's been slipped that GetWiki 2.0 is a stronger possibility later this year. There have been several suggestions for how 2.0 should work which have been taken seriously, and it will likely have a different look-and-feel.
GetWiki on Freshmeat
- 10 April, 2004 - Although the listing was dovetailed with other rimric interactive software, look for GetWiki on freshmeat.net. Freshmeat is a great place to keep up with Open Source happenings and get the word out to a large audience.
GetMeta Launched
- 7 April, 2004 - GetMeta, a wiki running GetWiki 1.0 software at GetWiki.net, has been launched to open discussion on GetWiki, running a wiki, wiki software and technologies, and other subjects. Visitors should feel free to particpate in the wiki-based forum and technical support site.
GetWiki.net on ibiblio
- 6 April, 2004 - GetWiki, the fork of MediaWiki incorporating XML standards, has a home at GetWiki.net. The site is hosted by ibiblio, the host of Wikinfo, a fork of Wikipedia running GetWiki as well as many other bibliographic websites.
