They do. I wasn't sure how hard it would be to set up, so I gave it a try. Behold: http://naviserver.sourceforge.net ! It wasn't so hard. The source is checked into CVS: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/naviserver/website/htdocs/wiki/ I still need to set up an auto-update script to cvs up the website every hour or so. I configured it so that you have to log in to edit pages. If y'all create accounts with your sourceforge name I'll give you sysop privs, with which you can delete pages, ban users etc. So, have a play with it, see if you think this will work for us. There's some documentation on the software here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_FAQ
