Sputnik is a content management system designed for extensibility. Out of the box it works as a wiki offering a standard range of wiki features. However, Sputnik can be extended into other things (a ticket system, a mailing list viewer, a forum system). This achieved through a flexible data model with self-describing nodes and prototype inheritance between nodes.

Screenshots
These screenshots should give you a first impression how Sputnik looks like.
Remember: The look of many Wikis can be changed by stylesheets or templates
so these are only examples.

Front Page
A typical front page

History
Global history. In this case the most recent revisions are messages sent to the mailing list, so they are shown with abbreviated email addresses.

Tickets Plugin
A Ticket / Bug tracking plugin. A plugin like this can be developed almost entirely through the web interface.

Mailing List Plugin
A mailing list plugin. An external script monitors the mailing list and puts messages into nodes in mbox format. The plugin presents a nice interface for viewing mbox threads.
