I've been using IkiWiki for my personal site since 2008, as well as a number of private instances. I joined the IkiWiki maintainers in 2024.
contributions
I've worked on a few different issues and bugs over the years (they are probably linked in "Backlinks", below). I slowly maintain the Opinionated Ikiwiki container. I have recently taken on the Debian packaging. My current focus is working upstream.
priorities
This is an unorganised and unordered stream-of-thought list of the things I'm interested in addressing at the moment.
Review all unreviewed patches; triage all the Debian bugs and make sure upstream issues are forwarded to issues recorded here; reconsider jquery; move doc/style.css in order to enable dark mode on https://ikiwiki.info; an approach for mastodon comments; maintain the project’s stability and backwards compatibility for existing users; make ikiwiki more attractive to people looking for SSGs; more prominent / support bits and pieces from IndieWeb; shrink the delta between ikiwiki and the opinionated-ikiwiki container: make setuid wrappers optional.
historic
I gave a talk at the UK UNIX User's Group annual Linux conference in 2008 about organising system administrator documentation. Roughly a third of this talk was discussing IkiWiki in some technical detail and suggesting it as a good piece of software for this task.
