FYI, MediaWiki is the one used by Wikipedia (plus the one that use /

In terms of integration with a Joomla site, I don't think there is
anything very good that works with MediaWiki. Was one floating around
awhile ago, a component, but it didn't do a very good job (wiki is
displayed inside an iframe, so URL doesn't change on browser) and I
don't think it has been developed further. There may be a better wiki
software now that integrates with Joomla better, if that is what you
want to do, just check the Joomla site.
I googled a bit for wikis that work with Joomla (e.g.
http://extensions.joomla.org/component/option,com_mtree/task,listcats/cat_id,1812/Itemid,35/),
and found OpenWiki
http://projects.j-prosolution.com/projects/os-projects/project-openwiki.html
(formerly JD-Wiki) and thought it looked good. It's a Joomla integration
of the standards-compliant DocuWiki, whose feature list is here
http://wiki.splitbrain.org/wiki%3Afeatures
I followed some other links to a wiki-comparison wiki at
http://www.wikimatrix.org. This contains a feature where you can select
features that you want in your wiki and it'll give you a table of
compliant wikis and you can whittle them down further. Whoever on the
GROMACS team will make this choice should probably do this process
themselves :-) After filtering for what I thought we'd want, the
resulting candidates are listed here
http://www.wikimatrix.org/compare/DokuWiki+Giki+MoinMoin+Perspective+PmWiki+ProWiki+PukiWiki+wxWikiServer+yawiki
The only features DocuWiki lacks that I think might be desirable is
WYSIWYG editing and MediaWiki-syntax compliance. I wouldn't want
WYSIWYG, but some people would rather not maintain documents with markup
inside it. MediaWiki seems to have more market share than DocuWiki, but
the syntax examples for DocuWiki look straightforward and accessible.
The one single reason for combining these things would be the abilitiy
to reuse Joomla passwords. We already have separate passwords for
bugzilla, website and mailing lists. On the other hand since browsers
memorize passwords for you it may not be that big a deal.
What do you think?
Having it separate (mediawiki) will probably make it easier to maintain
since there are fewer interdependencies.
