For a comparision of the MoinMoin software (used by Ubuntu) and the MediaWiki software, see here: http://moinmo.in/MoinMoinVsMediaWiki Some problems with MoinMoin: * It uses Python, which is not very common (MediaWiki uses the very common PHP) * MoinMoin was never designed for multi-language wikis (from the ground up, MediaWiki was - it includes many languages by default). * The extensions for MoinMoin are heavily fragmented into versions (if running on current version, does not mean it will run on the next version - this will create trouble later) Furthermore, MediaWiki can be expanded with cool and handy extensions: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Extensions MediaWiki is very comparable to MoinMoin syntax :) For a GUI mode of editing, we can use this: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor (don't worry about the word experimental, it has already been deployed on the English Wikipedia and works great) MediaWiki also gives us a powerfull API, which is great for programmers like us ;). I'm preparing a wiki system on my own site to showcase what we can achieve on the final site. I will give you the link once ready. Kind regards, Geoffrey De Belie / Smile4ever
