"Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared." --Buddha

We can train your team on MediaWiki, sharing our knowledge to make the world a brighter place. We cover New England easily from Boston, and can travel N. America depending on the size and scope of the project.

If you're in the UK, we suggest Richard Carter
If you're in France, we suggest Nicholas Nallet at Wiki-Valley
If you're in Germany, we suggest Marcus Glaser at BlueSpice
If you're in Switzerland, we suggest Lex Sulzer at Linux Competence Center
