My name is Xan Gregg, and you can contact me at daggerbox (at) forthgo.com (blog). I'm enjoying getting JSPWiki to work with mysql on Mac OS X. I'm using:

• JSPWiki 2.2.28
• Tomcat 4.1.24
• MySQL 4.0.15

I've also brought my local JSPWiki on Linux, with MySQL 3.22. The only hiccup was that the Mac file system is not case-sensitive, which also applied to the MySQL table names. Otherwise, it was just a matter of copying all the files and databases.

Had a dream last night -- I went to the JSP Wiki site and the left menu was gone and header just said "JSPWiki 4". What does it mean? A glimpse of the future?

Contributed Code#

• DatabaseProviderPatch - bug fixes
• StampFilter - a PageFilter that converts "menow" to a name/date stamp when the page is saved.
• JDBC Providers - JDBC-based page and attachment providers for MySQL.
• MigratorProvider - a "provider" whose real purpose is to move pages from one provider to another

Idea pages are a little confusing, so...

My JspWiki Wish List#

• Documentation -- I think rename and delete are in the latest versions, but I haven't figured out how to access those features, yet.
