DirDir - A directory-oriented WikiWiki
======================================
DirDir is the next generation [diri wiki](http://repo.cat-v.org/diri/), now implemented on top of wercand
taking advantage of its user, site management frameworks and other
infrastructure.
Features
========
DirDir is still somewhat experimental, but already all features diri had, plus some extras thanks to werc's power:
* Hierarchical organization.
* Markdown formatting.
* Easily customizable templates
* Simple and fine grained user permisions system.
* Completely database free.
* All needed to setup diridiri is to set a flag in your _werc/config file.
* Automatically wiki-fy existing werc documents.
* Implemented in about two dozen lines of rc scripts.
Status
======
Mostly usable, all basic features already implemented in the latest werc source
tree.
