3 MyXWiki.org is a free service offered by [[XWiki SAS>>http://www.xwiki.com/]] for non-profit organizations and individuals. It's subject to the limitations listed below.
4
5 For more elaborate needs, XWiki SAS offers [[XWiki Cloud>>http://www.xwiki.com/en/products/try-xwiki-cloud]] and [[professional hosting and support services>>http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Services/Hosting]]. Organizations evaluating wikis can also [[download a standard distribution of XWiki Enterprise>>http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download#HXWikiEnterprise]] for this purpose.

7 This community farm is subject to the following rules:
8 * No support warranty. All support is done on the [[XWiki Forum>>http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Discuss]] by the community.
9 * No stability warranty. We install the latest milestone version of XWiki Enterprise Manager on this farm and we use it as a stability test for the XWiki development team.
10 * No uptime warranty. It’s possible the farm will be down a few days in a row although we’ll do the maximum so that it doesn’t happen.
11 * No performance warranty. This farm is hosting a lot of wikis and they share the same XWiki instance so it's possible that you wiki will be slow.
12 * No upgrade help. You'll need to handle that yourself when we upgrade the XWiki instance for this farm.
13 * It's your duty to keep your wiki healthy and to avoid having it use too many resources (CPU and memory). This means avoiding using costly scripts and properly securing your wiki to avoid spam users and spam comments. Your wiki may be closed if it's not abiding by this rule.
14 * You don't have Programming Rights on your wiki for security reasons. This means you cannot install Extensions requiring Programming Rights or Extensions installing JARs, nor use privileged APIs inside scripts in wiki pages.
15
16 The farm is open to individuals and non-profit organizations to create wikis on. However the target users are mostly technical people who can support themselves. This farm should never be used for critical wikis. For that consider using [[XWiki Cloud by XWiki SAS>>http://www.xwiki.com/en/products/try-xwiki-cloud]].
