we are currently using ikiwiki to host our documentation. that has served
us well so far: it's available as a static site in the static mirror
system and allows all sysadmins to have a static, offsite copy of the
documentation when everything is down.
but ikiwiki is showing its age. it's an old program written in Perl,
difficult to theme and not very welcoming to new users. for example, it's
impossible for a user unfamiliar with git to contribute to the
documentation.
gitlab wikis, in contrast, have a web interface to edit pages. it doesn't
have the macros ikiwiki has, but that's nothing a few commandline hacks
can't fix... or at least we should consider it.
this is not blocking the trac to gitlab migration, but it would be nice to
jump onboard with everyone, since we will be migrating the Trac wiki onto
gitlab as well...
