Main Page

Welcome to the PKP Development wiki! We're providing this as a resource for developers, translators, managers and other users to share ideas and work on common problems.

Some pages (such as the roadmaps and milestones pages) are actively maintained by the PKP team itself, and are protected from non-PKP edits. We're happy to see additions to other pages, and new pages as well, although we do require that you register and log in to contribute. We may suggest a framework for additions to the site, but if there's a way you want to go about it that's logical and easy to follow, by all means do so.
