I was just talking with our hostmaster the other day and he told me that python is a nice language and it seems that my iBook has the python interpreter built-in so I might play around it with it a little, but I still see no reason to extend another wiki implementation instead of [[Mediawiki]] but as you've noticed you are free to fork from Consumerium if you hate using mediawiki so much --[[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 23:05, 21 Feb 2004 (EET)

:There's no reason to switch wikis for R&D purposes - we have maybe covered one third of the R&D issues by now.  But mediawiki will *never* implement the features you are asking for, and better [[wiki code]] like [[tikiwiki]] already has done so.  So sticking to it just because you have installed it once isn't a wise decision.  If you were looking objectively at all these technologies, the [[Python]] integration, better architecture, and now cell phone support makes [M[[MoinMoinWiki]] the obvious choice.  Just as if you were looking objectively at all the licenses now, the [[Creative Commons]] "attribution and share-alike" license probably makes more sense than the [[GFDL]].  This is what R&D is for: to make mistakes.
