I didn't want to confound a clear statement of the problem with the details of one possible solution. Especially as I don't know enough about Moinmoin to achieve complex effects (which I can do in html).
Automated build vs hand-edited? Both. I've collaborated with non-technical content providers to try and get the best of both worlds, which don't necessarily conflict. See for example: http://www.maxclark.me.uk/Frankie/ Now if you can show me how to achieve that effect in Moinmoin -- yielding a usable interface for the content provider (a teacher of English as a foreign language, with a low tolerance to cumbersome markup) then what we could have is: {collaborative-source} --> {extended moin} --> {end-pages}. But what I expect to have to do is: {collaborative-source} --> {own hand markup} --> {own batch processor} --> {simple moin} --> {more hand-editing} --> {end-pages} or: {collaborative-source} --> {own hand markup} --> {own batch processor} --> {html} --> {end-pages} Own batch proccessor is messier, but with more migration opportunities -- and I can see how to do it right now.
