I just started to experiment with Roadkill Wiki for use in my work group.

So far I think it is the best out there because it is easy to implement and easy for users to view/edit.
Congrats to the developer!  I also like that it uses IIS and SQL Server.

However (there's always a however :) the only thing that it is missing is a Change Summary so we
can see what revisions have been made.

In looking in the database, it appears that the previous content is retained so I should think all
that is needed is a means to display the differences to the current.

No doubt others has requested this.

Could this capability be coming soon in a future release?

Thanks,

-Bill

Please add it to the Github issues as a feature request, I will be moving the suggestions from the old suggestions site onto there soon too.

Right now Roadkill is a bit stagnant due to other commitments. I'm also waiting for the .NET Core (or is it Standard?) dust to settle so Roadkill will be available cross-platform, and as a Docker container (making it really cheap to host and very easy to provide steady feature updates for). As Microsoft are changing things so rapidly, and as the main or only Roadkill dev, I'm reluctant to add any new features until they have a stable API available again.

Sorry if that's not very exact - if you need the feature sooner then page plugins are fairly easy to write, and you get a Service or a Repository to query the database with.
