Moodle's integrated wiki is great, easy to set up and easy to use. I've used this with teachers and students without anyone having problems understanding how it works. Search functionality is also integrated from the start. The only thing is it is of course integrated in the Moodle package itself, but it is easy enough to add the wikis to the front page... that together with offline moodle seems to be an ideal solution. I'm currently testing both the offline moodfle plugin done by open university and intel, as well as the South American Jolongo developed using AIR, and both solutions seem promising for offline moodle. Both projects are still in BETA though, although the parties involved would be only too happy to get involved with something for OLPC... this provides an on and online wiki solution too (imho)...
