Hello, Have you checked out MediaWiki - the software that powers Wikipedia?
You can find it's homepage at http://wikipedia.sourceforge.net/ You can find it's source forge project site at http://sourceforge.net/projects/wikipedia/ I think the wiki is a great asset to your project, and it has gotten me out of a few problems on more occasions than I care to mention. Please do not abandon the wiki. Alternatively I *strongly* recommend you check out the Trac project at http://www.edgewall.com/trac/ . It's an ultimately customisable open source wiki, subversion repository browser and issue tracking system. We use it at work to manage our projects and I must say that it is an absolute pleasure to use. You can make sure only registered user can edit the wiki. All you need to do then is issue login details on the Ion homepage. I don't know whether it's repository, change set and history browser would interest you - but I find it invaluable for the projects I work on. Here is a sample page of the Trac website for the Trac project it's self: http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/changeset/1218 I hope this helps Tuomo.
