Bug#370592: RFH: tikiwiki -- groupware and content management system



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Dear developers,

I am looking for co-maintainers for the tikiwiki package. This is a
rather complex web application written in PHP, and I feel that I don't
have enough time to maintain it on my own.

The first packaged version (1.9.2) is currently in experimental. It is
basically working but has a few issues that need to be ironed out. In
addition, it needs to be upgraded to version 1.9.3.2, which fixes
security bugs.

The packaging work is somewhat tricky for the following reasons:

*In the Debian package, I have attempted to split out those modules in
the upstream source tree that are already in Debian.

*It was necessary to deviate from upstream's directory layout to
conform to Debian policy.

*The package uses dbconfig-common to simplify database creation and
 management.

I think it should be possible to work along these lines to turn this
into a working, high-quality package.

>From the package description:

 Tiki CMS/Groupware, also known as TikiWiki, can be used to create all
 sorts of web applications, web sites or portals. It offers a very
 large number of features and is highly configurable and modular. All
 features are administered through a web-based interface.

Thanks,

Marcus
