Hi folks,

I have been slowly learning WO and java, although I am not a developer by any stretch of the imagination. I have also been researching a number of other development approaches. I like a lot of aspects of WO but am not sure if it can solve all my problems. I am looking to develop a collaborative knowledge management application that has the following components:

1) it is web based and public
2) it has an e-commerce component
3) it has membership authentication and tracking of editing and revisions
4) it integrates with a database that can accept uploads of rich media as well as text


(So far, so good. From my limited knowledge I can see that WO can handle most of this.)

And now the other stuff ...

5) Integration with a wiki, such as Twiki. Is it possible to seamlessly blend this collaborative app with WebObjects? Transactions could also take place.

Possible, yes. Easy? I don't know. There is also http:// www.wodev.com which is itself an open source Wiki implemented in WO.



6) I assume that if that were possible, the site could also include a blog?

I don't see why not. Jon Rentzch made a blog in 15 minutes (or some ridiculous amount of time) in WO: http://rentzsch.com/woWebLog


7) I would like to make this a hybrid architecture that includes peer to peer, and have read with interest about JXTA. Has anyone had experience trying to mix WO with a distributed database?

That depends on how you use it. EOF is not going to like part of its object space coming and going. If you using something else to interface it, I don't forsee any specific problems.
