Why Wiki?

A Wiki can be used for collaborative work. It is an easy to use groupware system, very well suited for student projects.

Access control

The access control system allows to give groups restricted rights for editing. The StudentGroup has the right to edit certain pages. Users of the EditorGroup are allowed to edit pages and to add students in the StudentGroup. Users of the AdminGroup are allowed to add users in the EditorGroup. Contact LarsKaleschke if you have questions.

Control Lists (ACLs) should be used to give specific users or groups the right to do specific actions.

Use preview

Please use the preview button to avoid too many changes to be stored in the database.
