Swik

July 31, 2005 dempsey

Swik is a database of open source software. It will search for something if it doesn’t already know about it. It has wiki-style capabilities for user contributed entries.

Swik is a project to create a useful free-content directory for open source software. Swik was inspired by the wiki concept used by projects like Wikipedia and WikiWikiWeb. Anyone can edit Swik project pages, including you. [Swik]
