Hi-ho, Can I ask a potentially inflammatory question? If this offends anyone, please ignore me.. :-).
I've seen this debate about the wiki go back and forwards for a while, along with the recent comments about how bloated (L)AMP is. I find it hard to believe that we can't put a contemporary wiki engine online in the mere twinkling of an eye. Lets face it, we're geeks aren't we? Even mediawiki, which is as bloated as the come, only takes about 20-25Mb installed, and will run on pretty lowly hardware by today's standards. Sitting on the fence, as I am, it just seems silly.. Again, apologies if this treads on some toes.. Cheers, Chris H.
