After extensive research on the available options for wiki engines (
http://www.wikimatrix.org/∞ is a great tool) , I settled on
WikkaWiki as the perfect blend of speed and power for my
shared story universe∞ project. It's worked like a charm, the user-created mods haven't been painful installs (at least, no worse than YaBB back in the day
:)), and I've been appreciating the wiki's light footprint given my hosting situation on a virtual server.
I've got programming and administration experience, though I'm still in the shallow end of the PHP and
MySQL pools, and I hope to share my own mods once I get around to writing them. My wiki's
ToDo page∞ offers a glance at the directions I'll be going.
My Wikka bookmarks
- Documenting changes that need to be made when installing Wikka into its own domain: RobotsDotTxt
- Hopefully pitching in to RemovingUsers with a way to check if users can be safely deleted (or if the db can be changed to remove their names so as to allow scrubbing?)

EmailActionInfo mod on my board and I'd prefer to hide my address behind its spam protection).
