On my way to OpenChain and Friends 2026 in Stuttgart, at 11:15 I'll talk about "Sustainable OSS: lessons from XWiki" in the cross-innovations topic stream. Meet me there or at the #XWiki stand in the hallway during the breaks. More about the event at https://openchainproject.org/news/2025/12/09/openchain-and-friends-2026 #openchainandfriends
OpenChain and Friends 2026 – Stuttgart – March 24~26 – OpenChain

ich glaube, es gibt jetzt keine Ausrede mehr, dass ich mich nicht mit #Xwiki näher beschäftige: ein Kollege hat Xwiki zur Dokumentation installiert.

Als Erstes hätte ich gerne ein Äquivalent zu den Seiten-Vorlagen von Confluence für die Dokumentation von Servern, also z.B. Hostname, RAM, IP, HDDs, etc... und entsprechende Sektionen.
Bei Confluence hatten wir da eine Tabelle, wo dann sowas eingetragen wurde und über Tags wie "linux, server" dann bei auf einer anderen Seite als dynamische Tabelle dargestellt werden konnte, eben z.B. alle Linux-Server.

Wenn ich das bisher richtig verstanden habe, nutzt man dazu bei Xwiki "App Within Minutes"?

📌 A pattern we often see

A documentation tool works well at the beginning. Simple, quick to adopt.

Then the organization grows.

More teams, more permissions, more dependencies.
The knowledge base becomes critical.

That’s when things change.
It’s no longer about simplicity.
It’s about structure and governance.
