I am developing a semantic wiki engine that builds on  Creole syntax conventions to support documents and other material relevant to the needs of transactional law.

I am impressed by the work that the WikiCreole community has accomplished -- normalizing common markup across the many wiki engines is no small feat.

However it is time I think to push into a new territory that addresses the needs of wiki applications, wiki books, wiki documents, and other upcoming uses of the paradigm.  In particular Creole 2.0 should include a standard markup providing:
* fine-grained XHTML support
* robust XSL support including pagesets
* complete support for semantic annotations & queries
* core semantic models of a wiki and its articles
* interwiki support and namespace standardizations

One other topic, as I saw elsewhere in this wiki: Is Creole a Waste of Time, i.e., Why not use HTML? My answer is a resounding no!
* Most humans loathe entering HTML, for very good reasons
* HTML evolution is throttled by certain software houses(hard evidence: XHTML 2.0) whose interest is NOT users needs but rather preserving the commercial viability of their (complex/expensive) product suites which emit XHTML 
* To be successful, the "Semantic Web" absolutely must be an evolution of current technologies -- a direct plea for RDF/A atop XHTML -- rather than a revolution featuring wholly new technologies -- a direct slap at the gethering notion of RDF triples exchange.

I suspect there's enough technos in this group willing to help surface a blueprint that establishes wikis as the essential platform for delivery of web 3.0... if there is, actually and truly, any //other// alternative for web 3.0, then I'd sure like to hear about it.
