Its cool to see there's more easy deployment software being made. I have been working on a similiar project meant to be like EasyEngine. Due to the fact that there are better technologies out there than just apache and mod-php. This is a step in the right direction, though. The biggest barrier to developers and users having their own wiki's is that to install it properly requires a lot of work.
