Software

If your Internet connection is good, all you need is a web browser.

Otherwise, this wiki works offline (which is great for conferences -- you know how Wi-Fi can be).

It's just a git repo full of Markdown files. At minimum, you just need git and your favorite text editor. Just fork like normal and make a pull request (or request push access from newhavenrb).

Plugins

• gollum
  • gollum: what GitHub made for git-based wikis. (See also: Fix undefined method 'new' for Redcarpet:Module) FIXME their latest relase might have fixed that; check and remove this notice if so.
• vim
  • vim-markdown: syntax, etc
  • wikilink: wiki navigation in vim

Utilities

• SparkleShare (on GitHub)- Like Dropbox, but working with git repositories. Makes wiki "live blogging" easier (but with a lot of commits -- notice how @benjaminoakes has 800+)
