I tried Google Sites a while ago, but you had to have users registered at a corporate domain name to get a Google site. Now you can collaborate with just about anyone.
I set up this sample site if you guys want to take a look: http://sites.google.com/site/openjumpwiki/ I'll delete it if we decide to do something else. Send me your e-mail if you want to be added as an owner/collaborator of the site. This is needed to edit.
