Handling of features requests and bug reports |
Elements which are not listed as features and are strengths of PmWiki :
- Small code base (under 2 MB)
- Many parameters are handled by pages, without having the need to open system files, which greatly helps the Wiki administration.
- While there is only one major developer, there is a very active community and most addons are from independent people.
Add a new feature you would like to see in PmWiki as a new PITS? entry marked Feature Request, or use one of the mailing lists? to brainstorm new features.
