Wiki is in Ward's original description:
The simplest online database that could possibly work.
Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has a simple text syntax for creating new pages and crosslinks between internal pages on the fly.
Wiki is unusual among group communication mechanisms in that it allows the organization of contributions to be edited in addition to the content itself.
Like many simple concepts, "open editing" has some profound and subtle effects on Wiki usage. Allowing everyday users to create and edit any page in a Web site is exciting in that it encourages democratic use of the Web and promotes content composition by nontechnical users
Sounds like a cool idea to me also.
A tool that could be resused.

Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: Witango Wiki?
I think that would be a great idea. It would really show WiTango is "up-to-snuff".
I've only got T2000 running, but I'd be willing to donate some space on a test box running WIN2K/SQL2K.

Does anyone think having a witango wiki would be a good idea?
I subscribe to a game programming list where they just made a wiki and it's great because people can post answers to FAQ's, put up code samples, and all sorts of things.
We have some elements of that with peoples various pages, especialy pcforge but a wiki would enable people to post lots of code techniques to do commonly needed tasks (such as Mathew's question about having a dynamic form created in witango and auto-calculated in _javascript_) which other people could review and make suggestions/changes for making the shown technique better.
I dont have a server to host a wiki unfortunately but I figured I'd toss this idea out there in case anyone else agrees it would be a good idea and has the means to make it happen.
of course lots of wikis are written in php or python so maybe the first step is someone needs to write a wiki in witango? (:
