Ok.

XWiki is an option that we are considering and wanted to reach out to the

I'm sure that XWiki devs would be happy to answer your questions and point
you to the relevant resources when it comes to integrating it with Sakai.
There are 3 potential level of integration that I can see:

   - Embed XWiki as a whole into Sakai with a custom-built interface
   - Expose XWiki through gadgets and keep the wiki separated from Sakai
   - Use XWiki's rendering + WYSIWYG editor modules to build a simple wiki
   inside Sakai

Which of those options sounds best to you?

As for similar integrations, I remember a member of the community integrated
XWiki with magnolia, and there's also part of an integration with eXoPortal
if that is of any help.
