Dark horses include [[VeryQuickWiki]] (a [[Java wiki]]), [[UseMod]] (only advantage is that it dumps [[XML output]], very very very important until there is a real [[wikitext standard]]).
Dark horses include [[VeryQuickWiki]] (a [[Java wiki]] very easy to set up and run without problems), [[UseMod]] (only advantage is that it dumps [[XML output]], very very very important until there is a real [[wikitext standard]]), and [[Zope]] (also dumps XML, and is in use at other [[essential projects]] like [http://act.greenpeace.org ACT.Greenpeace.org].


Also [[Microsoft wiki]] will likely be out eventually, and some [[peer2peer]] options relying perhaps on [[XForms]] later.  [[Microsoft Internet Explorer XML Support]] is an important constraint on which of these features can be used at all.  It may be a wise tradeoff to support only MSIE for certain [[user role]]s, if these are ''always'' taken on by well-equipped well-supported people who can be far more easily supported by relying on IE's XML, than any other method.  By the same argument, if Opera or Netscape does something uniquely well and only two or three people need that capability, requiring those might also make sense for some roles.  For ordinary end users the [[APC Action Apps]] baseline browser capabilities should probably be adopted as Consumerium's own.
