A nice coworker, when I mentioned my much-beloved and rather hackishly abused wiki, put me onto MoinMoin. Faster and better than UseMod, he says. Written in Python.

Which would generally stop me in my tracks (that's why I chose UM - single Perl script), but he says Python's easy to learn...

I assume my impressive and competent webhosts won't blink if I ask them about mod_python.

Comparing MoinMoin to UseMod on other counts does sound positive. For example, MM supports the inclusion of 'boilerplate' text (which is what I painstakingly hacked UseMod to do) and footnotes. Even the markup is largely the same.

Migration'd be a pain, though. A script or something would be very nice.

(And, of course, those of you who've friended my LJ know I don't need another project just at the moment...)

And powered mostly by work we were already doing anyway - the hallmark of the very best sort of new shiny useful things.

Or, as I like to call it in my avant-garde way, the A/V index. Diagonal penstrokes are funky.

You can't tell, but I had lots of fun with our ColdFusion expert person making that bottom part work. (Update already in the works to make the news popups work properly.) And lots of fun on my own with the CSS. Some bits are hackish because Firefox and Opera ignored some formatting commands, in all three different ways I tried phrasing them, for reasons I don't understand.
