=== OurPlace ===

OurPlace is a wiki server I wrote in 2001 to run a site for me and my friends. Its functionality is based largely
on Ward Cunningham's WikiWikiWeb, or at least the WikiBase code he published back then.

It was written in Java 1.2 (later 1.3?) against the Servlet 2.1 (later 2.2) spec.

The code is very basic. All the controller logic happens in a single if/then/else statement in the main servlet,
it keeps the entire site in memory, the persistence mechanism is plain old Java serialization, and I hesitate
to guess just how many concurrency bugs are lurking in it. Still, I wrote it in two Sundays (one for the base wiki,
another to rewrite the wiki parser so I could more easily add new markup) and it managed to keep the handful of
contributors to my website happy for a number of years.

This code has little more than sentimental value for its author, I'm just putting it online because I keep almost
losing it on my own machines.
