We had to move our wiki away from MoinMoin because we had a lot of trouble with the wiki crashing people's browsers (particularly Firefox?) mid-edit. We're running on MediaWiki now and like it pretty well so far. Getting data out of MySQL databases isn't very hard --- in the worst case, mysqldump gives you a flat file. That said, if you want a flat-file wiki, another option is DokuWiki, which is an easy install. (I don't know much about its functionality for end users, but it seems reasonable at a glance.) It also appears to keep old revisions as separate files.
