I am in a shop where the SharePoint (SP) user configuration is rather rudimentary. The default SP site that is created for a project has a folder structure for checking in documents. There is a "policy" (edict) that at the "root" folder level such as:

http://projects.FOO.com/sites/ProgramOffice/PP/ProjectName/default.aspx

The default folder structure appears so that all the projects haave the "same look and feel."

Compliance aside, the folks on the team prefer a "wiki" like portal that enables shared collaboration and easy location of documents as opposed to manually drilling down each folder to locate a specific document.

Does anyone have any creative ideas that will allow me to leverage Emacs for creating and managing Wiki content at a subsite level (leaving the site level -- URL above -- unchanged for "compliance" reasons)? 

I have heard of Emacs-Muse but don't know much. 

I am not a SP developer nor Emacs-Lisp savvy.

Thanks for any input.

You can use muse indeed, there is a wiki mode. There is some learning and
some setup to do...

Another way, if you use firefox as your browser, is to use the "It's all
text" extension, which can be set up to use emacs as editor.

Open source is the future. It sets us free.

Beware: open-source software is not free (as in free speech) software,
thus it does not set us free.
