Description

  • Record and store events happening inside the wiki
  • An event is defined by the following questions:
    • what? -> event type
    • when? -> event date / time stamp
    • who? -> event initiator
    • where? -> event source and (where to look for) event effect (wiki/space/page/application)
  • Standard event types are:
    • create / add
    • edit
    • move / rename
    • delete
    • comment
    • annotate
    • attach
  • 3.0 definition: An activity stream is a flow of content items that represents what has been changed in a particular context (i.e., a workspace). These items are usually ordered in reverse chronological order to show the most recent items first. What is shown in an activity stream depends on the desired granularity and usually this information consists of what has been modified in a wiki, a new blog post, new members that have been added to the workspace, etc. 

Extensions
