So at this stage Smeagol is a Wiki engine written in Clojure which uses Markdown as its text format, which does have user authentication, and which uses Git as its versioning and backup system.
## DLL Hell
Unfortunately, Smeagol currently uses **[clj-jgit](https://github.com/clj-jgit/clj-jgit)** for Git integration, and **clj-jgit** depends on an obsolete version (0.5.3) of **org.clojure/core.memoize**, whereas other components of the system rely on the current (0.5.6) version. This conflict currently makes it tricky to do an out-of-the-box build of Smeagol. You need to check out clj-jgit and build a custom build, depending on the current, not the obsolete, version of memoize. I'm working to fix this problem.
## Markup syntax
Smeagol uses the Markdown format as provided by [markdown-clj](https://github.com/yogthos/markdown-clj), with the addition that anything enclosed in double square brackets, \[\[like this\]\], will be treated as a link into the wiki.

* Improved editor. The editor is at present very primitive - right back from the beginnings of the Web. It would be nice to have a rich embedded editor like [Hallo](https://github.com/bergie/hallo) or [Aloha](http://aloha-editor.org/Content.Node/index.html) but I havenven't (yet) had time to integrate them!
* Improved security. Having the passwords in plain text rather than encrypted is just basically poor; having the passwd file in *public* space is also poor (although I believe it cannot be accessed via HTTP). Essentially, authentication mechanisms should be pluggable, and at present they aren't;
