Ideally an iPhone client should maintain a local copy of the wiki that can be fully operational including creating posts etc totally offline but with synchronization events.

Issues with this are many and we should be prepared with appropriate set of strategies for resolution of conflicts. Some conflict types:

- both sides create a post with the same name
- one side updates a post and another deletes it
- both sides rename the same post
