16 While not as pretty as other wiki's, I like TWiki (twiki.org) for the
17 power it provides. It also stores pages in text files rather than a SQL

20 I don't really think having a file-based wiki is a bad thing. It's
21 really no different from a rendering point-of-view than the GuideXML
22 rendering we do now.
