13 * Vincent - Less polished UI than XWiki OOB
14 * Vincent - The TikiWiki configuration seems very complex
15 * Vincent - The TikiWiiki configuration seems very powerful. Lots of use cases taken into account OOB. Feels like more options than XWiki OOB (we could achieve most of them with some bits of scripting possibly)?
16 * Vincent - Less script-oriented than XWiki in wiki pages (everything is done using existing configs). You can change stuff but AFAIR you need PHP programming knowledge when you need that.
17 * Vincent - TikiWiki bundles everything vs Extensions for XWiki. How does their community can contribute new features? Do they need to be committers? How they decide to bundle or not bundle something? If not bundled, can it still be added to a TikiWiki instance?

21 * How does structured data work in TikiWiki vs XWiki
22 ** Answer: Using [[trackers>>https://doc.tiki.org/Trackers]]
23 ** Are tracker definitions stored in wiki pages and benefit from the wiki paradigm (history, rollback, permissions, etc)?
