Everybody laugh with me :)

Regarding the ability to fast track finalization of requirements and such,
we may wish to you some simple comparisons to ensure we are thinning options
out...

http://www.wikimatrix.org/

I like both MediaWiki and TWiki (TWiki preferred personally).

  I think we're agreeing--because external auth was once a big pain for
  some of the wikis--but it made me realize that the requirements don't
  say whether we are building

  http://wiki.opensolaris.org/

  which can look like a wiki, or replacing the content handler behind

  http://opensolaris.org/

  which should only look like a wiki some of the time.
