darcs-based wiki engine

[davidlazar]

A darcs-driven wiki engine.

• All wiki pages are in a darcs repository.
• Edits can be made through a web browser or directly to the darcs repository.
• Create a web interface (HAppS?) to add and edit pages and perform other darcs tasks.
• Possibly replace MediaWiki on haskell.org.

You might be intrested in this quick proof-of-concept:

•  http://matrix.chaos.earth.li/~ian/diki/Index
•  http://matrix.chaos.earth.li/~ian/dikidev/Index

(I can't remember how the two differ, if at all. I haven't touched this in quite some time). Source here:

•  http://urchin.earth.li/darcs/ian/html-monad/
•  http://urchin.earth.li/darcs/ian/diki/

(this is far from complete, so not a reason that this would be a bad SoC project).
