Clibu, open beta

Hello Neville,

what I could find out about Clibu sounds interesting to me.

So I signed up at myclibu.com and received a password. But although I tried a lot of times I was not able to log in (either appeared a message that the server connection was lost or a message that an unknown error appeared).

So I had no possibility to test Clibu or even see how it looks. Therefore I would like to ask some simple (but important for my needs) questions here in this forum:

1. Is Clibu something like an (online) Wiki (respectively can it be used in this way)?

2. Does it fully support Unicode?

3. Does it offer a search function (filter) so that the search can be restricted to the titles of the articles (that means: no search concerning tags, no full search)?

I tried out a little bit Surfulater (on the desktop) and this has exactly such a feature (a stable window above the list with the articles in the tree where I can type the title I am looking for).

For my needs such a filtered search would be essential because primarily my knowledge base would be a dictionary.

4. For the same reason of importance for me: Can Clibu create automatically a strictly alphabetical order of the titles of the articles?

5. Does Clibu offer a fast “Find-as-you-type-search”?

6. Is it possible to transfer contents from Word documents to Clibu without losing the complete formatting? (Some loss is inevitable, I fear).

7. Is there any restriction (for technical or other reasons) concerning the number of articles I can create? In my case each keyword of the dictionary would correspond with an article. This would mean in practice some thousands of them.

Thanks in advance for your reply.
