Taking a cue from several other Open Source projects, RocketForge has setup a wiki space for anyone who needs a space in which to collaberate on a rocket project. A 'wiki' is a set of web pages in which anyone can edit anything. Essentially it is a whiteboard where everyone has both a marker and an eraser.

This particular wiki engine does have authentication but this is simply for tracking of who said what. All changes are also archived so even if someone accidentally changes something important, it can be recovered. Links in a wiki take the form of a WikiWords which are simply capitalized words stuck together LikeThis. The wiki engine recognizes those and creates links automatically.

To get a feel for it go directly to the ArocketWiki and add something!
