tegwick 3160648b61 research: federation concepts for unified information spaces
Document Federated Wiki mechanics (fork, journal, inverted browser model),
Caulfield lifecycle concepts, and comparison with git-backed wikis,
ActivityPub/XWiki, Xanadu patterns, and yawex REMOTE/VIRTUAL. Map
findings to shard-wiki INTENT without equating fedwiki to orchestration.

shard-wiki

Git-based Markdown wiki orchestrator and federation layer.

shard-wiki joins heterogeneous wiki-shaped page stores (shards) into a coherent information space while preserving provenance, capabilities, and history. It is an orchestration layer, not a wiki engine.

Status

Early-stage: Python scaffold, intent and specification groundwork, active design workplan. See SCOPE.md for current maturity.
