Sharing & Collaborating

This page contains information on making a page or a section of a page on one user's wiki viewable or editable by another community member. Sharing is giving one of your contacts (or a group) read-only access to one or more pages on your wiki. Collaborating is granting edit permission to others, so everyone can add info and view what others added.

Existing MediaWiki extensions will be able to provide this functionality. It will probably require custom PHP development.
