DekiWiki is a fork of MediaWiki (appears to be based
on the 1.4.x line).
They have provided numerous features that many on this list desire from
MediaWiki, including WYSIWYG, granular access permissions, a definite page
hierarchy, and per-page attachments. It is worth noting that the target
audience and desired usage of DekiWiki is substantially different from
MediaWiki's. I would say DekiWiki is more like Confluence or XWiki than
MediaWiki. As such, many of the MediaWiki features you have grown to love
(including the wiki syntax) are not included. So, evaluate with care.
And of course it's GPL! Is there any likelihood of missing
much-desired features for MediaWiki being ported from it or at least
inspired?
