Hello,

Thousand Parsec has gotten to a size where we need some type of "web
scratchpad" which can be used to develop and discuss stuff such as
potential rulesets. It could also be used for pages where user
contribution is important. This is exactly what a wiki is good for,
however there are thousands of different wikis to choose from.

This wiki is *NOT* going to be use for our main website. However, some
sections such as the Links and FAQ may be moved to the Wiki. The wiki
should also be highly themeable so we can make it fit in with the rest
of the website.

The wiki should have these features
 - Simple
 - Easy to Install and Maintain
 - Concentrates solely on being a Wiki
 - RSS Feeds of changes and similar
 - Themeable

Some options I have looked at so far are,
 DokuWiki - http://www.splitbrain.org/projects/dokuwiki
 MoinMoin - http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/ 
 TWiki    - http://twiki.org/
 PMWiki   - http://www.pmwiki.org/
 PHPWiki  - http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/

Some options which are not in consideration
 MediaWiki - Way too heavy for our requirements

This page looks quite helpful,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_wiki_software

What do people think?

Tim Ansell
