Hi list,
Newbie alert !!
I have a question about MediaWiki and calendaring integration and hope
this is the correct list to ask ?
I work in a technical support organization where we do use MediaWiki to
share information between peers globally. Due to progressing
requirements, I would like to integrate a calendar within our MediaWiki
because of it's flexibility and ease of use for everyone.
I have the following requirements :
- LDAP user integration.
[1] Maintain wiki rights for LDAP users,
[2] Restrict calendar rights and maintain the ability to track
changes and to revert when needed.
- No external access.
We do not want to rely on external sites as for example Google for
both security and privacy concerns.
- Support multiple calendars
We need the ability to add multiple calendars to the same wiki in
order accommodate different needs for different teams.
- Event display
Calendar should display an appropriate event field with possibly
additional detail.
I have looked at some Calendar extensions but not yet found what I am
looking for.
Are there any MediaWiki Calendar extensions that people here use in
similar fashion and/or perhaps can recommend, or have people here built
customized wiki-integrated solutions for this type of use ?
The consensus could also be we need to look at alternative and perhaps
more 'heavy-weight' solutions for this task.
Just looking for ideas here, and appreciate your thoughts and insights,
since a MediaWIki solution would be preferred.
Best regards
Hans
