==== Description: ====
Exocortex is a knowledge base application with a goal of having few
dependencies and being flexible enough to grow with my and other's needs.
The only hard dependency is a Python 3 distribution.
I use Mediawiki, but want to be able to take my knowledge database on
vacation, etc. and also update the KB programmatically. The simpler database
schema and choice of programming language make this easier than with other
products.
Currently, a Tk based GUI is available along with scripts to import org-mode
files and interact with the database. Future goals are a browser and also
Emacs interface to the KB. I use Emacs with deft and org-mode a great deal and
envision Exocortex being the backend storage instead of the filesystem.


==== Other Software Required: ====
Python 3 https://www.python.org PYTHON SOFTWARE FOUNDATION LICENSE VERSION 2
psycopg2 http://initd.org/psycopg GNU Lesser General Public License
SQLite https://sqlite.org Public Domain


==== Other Comments: ====
I use GNU/Linux and Emacs, and want to give back something. This is also being
submitted to Savannah because I use Mercurial for source control and would
like this project hosted here to enable continued use of hg.
