About this wiki

This resource is operated and maintained by the Educational Technology Consultant's Group, which is part of Academic Computing, which is part of Information Services and Technology at MIT.
You are currently connected to a development server. A production server is on order. The server is taking longer to arrive than we had anticipated. We hope to have it installed and ready to go by mid April.

How's it Work?

Confluence is segmented into 'Spaces'. A space can be either world readable or restricted, with varying permission levels, to members of a given group (or set of groups).
For instance:
You are currently in the 'Welcome to the Academic Computing Wiki', or 'TOP' space. This space is world-readable, but permissions are set such that anyone in the group confluence-users (anyone with an account) can add comments.

To get to any of the wiki's private spaces requires either:

• a valid MIT certificate
  and
• membership in a Moira group which has been granted access to the space

or, for non-MIT users..

• a Confluence username/password account
  and
• membership in the appropriate Confluence group (ditto)
  ..both of which must be requested from the administrators

You must also have cookies enabled in your browser.

A space needs to be requested and set up centrally. The contact is confluence-space-request@mit.edu.
