MediaWiki needs to be a *lot* more popular for the enterprise. Compared to Confluence, it lacks the tick-box items "ACLs" and "WYSIWYG"; it'll never have ACLs, but the visual editor should help a great deal. Confluence is also one of the few things I can think of that makes MediaWiki look lightweight. - d. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
