Title: NEW TEAMPAGE VERSION IS FIRST WIKI TO MATCH LINKING AND MODERATION WITH ENTERPRISE 2.0 REALITIES
TeamPage Introduces
Page Name History and Cross-wiki Name Aliasing; Easy Linking GUI; and
Page/Comment Moderation; Enables Collaboration ‘at the Edge'
Providence,
RI—November 12, 2007—Traction®
Software, the leading developer of products
for secure, scalable, web-based collaboration, today announced the
latest version of TeamPage™,
Traction’s award-winning enterprise
blog and wiki software.
“As the leading enterprise wiki, TeamPage is known
as one of the easiest collaboration platforms to use, but our customers wanted
to extend their deployments to make Traction a central knowledge repository
that can handle flexible collaboration with external as well as internal
stakeholders,” said Greg Lloyd, president and founder of Traction Software. “They challenged us to further improve ease
of use, scalability, management and the real need for Enterprise 2.0 collaboration ‘at
the edge’ - with customers, supply chain partners, sales partners, legal and
other professionals – as well within the core of the enterprise. We're extremely proud to have met this
challenge.”
TeamPage 3.8 brings new levels of ease of use to linking, moderation, and
cross-organizational collaboration, matching Enterprise 2.0 requirements when deploying
wikis of any size. TeamPage can now show the 'latest stable version' of wiki
pages without inhibiting the ability to edit collaboratively and reach
consensus, taking the pain out of refactoring and sharing pages across wiki
project spaces, and making it easier to follow compliance requirements and do
blog-style communication in the same space and context as wiki-style page
editing.
Traction TeamPage Release 3.8 will be available for preview use this month and
will ship in the fourth quarter of 2007.
About the New TeamPage Release:
·
Links
are the heart and soul of wikis, and this new TeamPage makes linking accessible
to non-techies and techies alike. Traction now offers the easiest, most
intuitive GUI for making forward links to new content as well as links to
existing content or external sites. The same GUI also makes it simple to link
to Traction "sections" and other label/tag driven views and link to
files attached to article pages or stored in Traction's built in web share
folders.
·
Users
now have a place to look when they discover that a new page has taken over an
old page's name. Traction will introduce the first forward linking feature set
with full referential integrity, name aliasing and cross-wiki project name
aliasing, all combined with page name history (in addition to page content
history).
·
TeamPage
project spaces now support integrated blog and wiki style collaboration using a
combined name space, or can enforce a wiki style unique name space in any or
all projects.
·
Collaborate
while keeping the "latest stable" version visible. During the often
knotty process of refactoring a wiki - which may require performing a set of
related edits over many pages - authors can collaborate on changes over time
without disturbing the "latest stable" view of the wiki. Page changes
can be published later, when all the pages are ready - or have been reviewed
and approved. Authors can see, search and review the combined effect of all
drafts for collaboration, or flip back to see and use the latest stable view of
all pages. New permissions allow control over who can publish drafts, edit
drafts, read drafts and even lock pages.
