Student Notebook and Tiddlywiki are a really brilliant, thanks for sending the
link.  I'm hoping to install for myself and recommend to a farm education
program--now that I discovered why the browser and file permissions were
preventing me from saving changes.  That seems like something which will be an
issue for many other users--their list of browser incompatibilities
(http://tiddlywiki-com.tiddlyspace.com/search?q=tag:browsers)
looks short, at least.

I was still curious to see what other wiki platforms are designed for offline
use, and so without knowing better, I compiled a list:
