Foswiki and TWiki reviews on Sourceforge

Below content is distributed via SourceForge's RSS feed of reviews on the two projects. Some of the below reviews are not displayed there, maybe as a result of intense caching on their behalf.

My personal favorite:

“With Peter behind it, it has to be great.”

is not RSSed anymore.

On Foswiki

Last update 4 months, 3 weeks aqo
Thumbs up: good
Thumbs up: Foswiki offers a solid codebase for many use cases. The available software is only superseeded with the friendly and fast support of the developers and community.
Thumbs up: super progress!

On TWiki

Last update 2 months, 3 weeks aqo
Thumbs up: Has provided wonderfully for my team and others!
Thumbs down: Company bought the name, and after the code writer complained, locked them out. no help now, "buy a consulting contract". Everyone's at Foswiki, same code, same people. just none of the drama.
Thumbs down: The arquive downloaded is empty and it takes too long time to start the download, includind mirrors
Thumbs up: TWiki has rocked for over a decade. 'nuff said.
Thumbs up: Simple, stable. I wrote code via the API to automate ERP source postings to TWiki in 2006 and the code still works unmodifed. In simplicity, there is elegance.
Thumbs down: Everyone's gone. All the coders are at Foswiki, Yahoo, Motorola, Google are moving or have already moved. Spectacular combustion of a project name by corporate squeezing of a community.
Thumbs up: its cool
