More Wikis... enterprisey ones

As Tom Suggested, Confluence looks pretty neat, it's a one off US$2000 enterprise wiki system (Acad. price). It's certainly pretty and it's got among all the basic functionality you'd expect RSS and all! I also like the 'breadcrumbing' structure. Not to sure about the price tho' and what it makes up for in prettiness it seems to lose (on a VERY brief exploration) in simplicity. Hmmmm... interesting...

Hell, if I'm going to start thinking about these then it's also worth looking at Courseforum which is a kinda wiki-based courseware management system... it has a free system, which is cool and is dead simple to use (and includes RSS :O). But again... I'm not sure if we wouldn't be overshooting the mark with a course system and, politically, whether we'd be seen as encroaching into territory the Uni's already paid $$$$$$s to set up.

Tom wonders about the intuitiveness of editme and whether "more "sophisticated" wikis are going to become progressively less wiki-like."
