Chris has thrown down a description of the work he's done on integrating PurpleWiki and MoveableType. His entry discussing this is helpful, indeed.

I've come to the perception that purpling is a very good thing indeed, and fits in the SmallRules idea that's been floating around in my head. There are many big things we can do to improve collaborative software (like ThreadsML, an idea I need to chase up and wrap my head around).

But what are the small things that can change the way we work with one another and share ideas? I think purpling is indeed one of those things. It may need a stronger specification, and a more aggressive set of proselytizing, but to be able to refer to granular elements of discussion - be it line based or paragraph based - is powerful indeed.
