Sharing Information – WIKI site for EFDA RP Sharing Information – WIKI site for EFDA RP

Remote Participation is a very large domain, including many topics that evolve very quickly. That is why a wiki site has been implemented within the EFDA RP, which offers to the community a place to share and discuss

• information. It offers an immediate access, for consulting and writing, without any former knowledge. Its

powerful interactive functions make this wiki becoming the reference site for RP subjects debates. About 60 members are registered now from 22 countries

The EFDA RP wiki site is based on XWiki technology http://xwiki.org which is an Open Source. It has been adapted in order to satisfy the needs and demands of the

• community. It is available from any

browser and is secured and moderated.

The seed for the EFDA Federation will be the existing Federation among CIEMAT, CEA and IST. In a first phase, the rest of participants will be EFDA, JET and KFKI/HAS. Of course, everybody is welcome to join the Federation.
