I'm a software developer at Progress Software in Bedford, MA. I'm now living in Benbrook, TX but telecommute to Progress machines in California and Massachussets. (Progress acquired my former employer--Persistence Software--based in San Mateo).

I think I came across the PortlandPatternRepository a few years back but didn't grok Wiki then. I recently came across ExtremeProgramming (backing into it from TestFirstDesign :-)) and Wiki was there again!

I got TheWikiWay and am trying to get other developers in my company to use a wiki for discussing process issues. But if I take Wiki to the eXtreme, does that mean we all have to have our own wikis? Yes!! See PersonalWiki.

OK. After playing around with several WikiWikiClones, I've put in a UseMod:UseModWiki for work even though it seems a bit broken in handling mixed numbered vs. bulleted items. TheWikiWay handled that pretty well, but didn't have diff support

Of course, getting people to use it is another issue. Not a BuildItAndTheyWillCome? situation. :-)
