I remember when I used to change this tagline on a weekly basis

Wikammer?

Channel 9 has yet another great idea posted on it. The idea of combining a Wiki and a programming interface. It sounds like such a good idea, I can't believe no one else has thought of it before. I'd love to use it for the extension I wrote for the "real browser".

Wiki and a programming interface---correct me if I am wrong but isn't that what CVS or Source Safe are? Seems like we already have a similar technology only we don't go giving it a Hawaian name.

Ralph - Oh I'll correct you ;-) The concept of this is just browsing to a site, changing the code on the site, and having the web-server do the rest of the work (build, create patch, keep track of deltas, branch, compile, package, make installer, whatever, etc.). Both CVS and SourceSafe require 3rd party software to use, this would only require a browser.
