A long time ago I set up Quickref to contain several "user defined
databases" to contain miscellaneous documentation.  The users liked it
because QW on a cursor position was a decent keyword search.  We various
techies maintained doc on a variety of topics, MVS, CICS, RACF, OEM
products, good lunch places, etc.

The price was right since we Chicago Soft customers.

Subject: Anybody use a Wiki for internal information?

I have a real gut desire to organize our internal Tech Services into a Wiki.
Something that is easily searchable with keywords. I'm having a real problem
with "inertia" and "too much bother" from others in my group. At present, we
tend to just document things in a MS Word document, then put that in a
shared Windows folder with a "good" file name. We then ignore it. <grin>

Does anybody out there think using Wiki software is reasonable and more
effective? Has anybody actually done it? If so, on what platform and with
what software? It is unlikely that we would host it on z/OS due to CPU
usage. That would be considered not cost effective.
