ScrewTurn Wiki and Perspective are both great wikis. We've moved away from
FlexWiki and are in correspondence with one of those two and find them very
cooperative. They have a business attitude towards their products rather
than a programmer's attitude. IOW, they are designing for the users, not for
the cleverness of programming.
We've basically left FlexWiki because of various things, notably the lack of
easy, end-user support for group-based Projects, difficulty in registering
user qualifications for pages, poor design of the administrative panel, lack
of a WYSIWYG editor and several other reasons. I think FlexWiki has simply
become an exercise for Microsoft afficianados to demonstrate some of the
more complex functions of the .NET environment, instead of designing for the
end-users.
Watching all the communications here on the mailing list seems to me to show
that it's programmers designing for programmers. The folks doing the work
seem so buried in the details that they haven't come up for air and seen
that there's basically nothing new in 2.0 over 1.8 for the end-user.
Unfortunately, Flexwiki will never be a serious entrant into the business
marketplace.

Subject: [Flexwiki-users] ScrewTurn Wiki
I just discovered this wiki. I'm going to try it to see how it compares
with FlexWiki. Has anyone run this before? It looks very impressive. At a
glance I don't see anything like WikiTalk which would make FlexWiki much
more flexible for me. But ScrewTurn wiki so far looks fantastic.
