While I hate to jump on the php bandwagon in the rails list :) I think your best bet for a solution at this point is one of the php wikis out there. Let me make my recommendation for pmwiki (http://www.pmwiki.org) -- I've actually been using it for several years. I'd dead easy to set up under Apache; I have it running under lighted and nginx as well; I can share configs for that if you wish. I know it runs on Windows boxes under WAMP (which I understand is pretty painless to set up and get going). I don't know if it works with the newest version of php that includes a built-in server or not, but if this is a light-weight enough user base, that's a possibility as well. Of course, the other direction to go at this point might just be MS's Sharepoint. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
