Some features were missing, more people are coming here and some announces are about to be made. That was a lot of good reasons to rework this blog design… And here it is! We improved overall posts and comments readability. There is also a search engine, access to archives and categories.

It’s not totally finished, but you get the idea.  We hope you will enjoy reading content here as much as we love writing it!

What would you need if you had to publish a document and then get it reviewed by someone else? You will be looking for a publish platform, with at least some comment system and a social network. That’s Wooki’s baseline.

Wooki is thought to be simple, based on a friendly user interface. Wooki also wants to make your data as accessible as possible, by offering you the possibility to import or export your documents in many formats, as PDF for example.

Wooki has been created for two reasons. The first one was described just above. The second one was to contribute to the open source world, and especially to the Tapestry 5 community that will find a lot of concrete application of Tapestry 5 concepts in it.

We are pleased to introduce you the first alpha-release of Wooki.
It is licensed under Apache 2 license, the same as Tapestry 5. It has been created by Christophe Cordenier, Robin Komiwes and Bruno Verachten.

Finally, nearly one year after, “spread the source” is finally launched.

This blog will be about Java / Open source development, especially Tapestry 5 framework and web related technologies.

I will publish on this blog with two of my colleagues: Christophe Cordenier and Bruno Verachten.

By the way, the next post will spread a big announcement, stay tuned!
