Good wiki
For those of you thinking about setting up a Wiki web server, I recommend you take a look at PmWiki. Recently I needed to set up a couple of user-driven web sites, so Wiki software was the natural choice. After looking around a bit, I settled on PmWiki for a couple of reasons: 1) It’s very easy to install and run. So easy, in fact, that it took about five minutes and chiefly amounted to unzipping a file. 2) PmWiki is pretty feature rich and has great plug-in look & feel theme support. It comes with a large set of themes and customization is easy.
As for the Wiki itself, it’s got all the bells & whistles that you would expect. So far I haven’t found anything we need that I can’t accomplish. Another advantage is that it doesn’t need a database back-end, while many Wiki packages do. That means additional installation and maintenance that we didn’t want to take on for these small projects.
