DynamiX Wiki

Phew! After a lot of fighting around with MediaWiki, I managed to get a neat Wiki installed, and after spending lot of time getting a nice look too, I present:
http://www.ramjasrkp.com/dynamix/DXW/

This Wiki is, as the site says, is the collected Wiki of all the departments. Of course, the DynamiX-related matters can be discussed too, but essentially, each dept. begins with a separate page for itself, and then anyone can add information like Objectives, post updates about the activities, and list out the various events it has conducted + team members etc. This is like a place where all the departments maintain their site. For those ignorant about Wiki, it is a collaborative tool where any one in the world can edit the content of the site on-the-spot from the browser itself. This helps improve the overall quality of the content, and also helps bring in more information and less work per person. Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org) is a perfect eg. of a Wiki.. the world wrote that amazing encyclopaedia. Try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki to learn more about a Wiki.

Since I am a bit sleepy, I didn't implement the security features yet. Right now, anyone in the world can edit our Wikis, but I plan on putting a password that only we all know. We don't need external literature in our case.

Damn! I was an ass since I removed index.html and made it index.php. I forgot to update the blog. Sorry for that.

So all of you can start work on the Wiki. Ayush, you're given charge of the Web Designing dept.

OK, I've changed the link and the location. Please check it out. /DXW/pmw just redirects now.

Good Work Shashank. Keep it going. Site's good.
The idea of different department is good. But we need to work a little more on it. We should classify the student in each department and give them some job.

Another thing all the links are here in blog just place it on the main
DX site also.
Also place the DX site's link in the Ramjas Site also.

Oh the image is a temp one. I really had nothing else to put, so I put this one. I've asked Ayush to give me the correct pic. He has the original logo file.
