i believe from past reading that mindtouch dekiwiki can't run on the run of the mill shared hosting for some dependence or other.
How about dream. (if you have mono on the host of course). Can dream run straight on apache or whatnot, and on the windows side of the house straight on IIS?

I thinking of a RIA stack that looks something like this

Silverlight client
mindtouch dream restful webservice
some sort of ORM.
MySQL or other backend datastore.

i'd want something that could run both on regular linux with mono hosting, and IIS, and would not want any PHP dependencies.

is that feasible?

also alternatively for regular webapps it could look like
ASP.NET MVC (2)
mindtouch dream restful webservice
some sort of ORM.
MySQL or other backend datastore.


and again run on windows or linux. If these configs seem feasible to you i think it would be good for mindtouch. When a platform level framework gets mainstream (like dream) it would surely help mindtouch even though dream itself isn't a sold product. if dream became mainstream there would be crossover interest in dekiwiki IMO.

Dream is pretty much designed for this use case. It's really a standalone web-services server, which also runs natively under IIS.
