Well this is a topic that has been very much on my mind. Clearly
Wikis are an important thing. Clearly Zope 2 is going away.
Something is needed on top of Zope 3. <br>
<br>
There was a version of Zwiki for Zope 3 by Stefan Richter. <br>
<br>
You can read more about it here.<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://longrun.zwiki.org/zwiki.org/ZwikiForZope3">http://longrun.zwiki.org/zwiki.org/ZwikiForZope3</a><br>
<br>
The source is here.<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://svn.zope.org/zwiki/trunk/">http://svn.zope.org/zwiki/trunk/</a><br>
<br>
I took a look at the source. It has wikis and wiki pages, and three
types of text formatting. Wikis and pages can be added TTW.
Hyperlinks are done correclty. And it had some understanding of the
hierarchy of a wiki, even if all the pages are int he same folder.
Interesting code.<br>
<br>
It is about 5 years old. I tried installing it, but did not run
right away.<br>
<br>
There is also a version here:<br>

<br>
Also 5 years since it was last updated. <br>
<br>
A lot of the python sites use moinmoin. Python.org, ztfy.org, maybe
ubuntu and a few others. MoinMoin is all written in python. I have
to say I am not happy with moinmoin. <br>
<br>
To configure moinmoin I have to edit python files on the file
system. With ZWiki, I just added the product, and then used the
web interface to add another wiki. WAY WAY easier. Particularly
figuring out how to run a wiki farm, with multiple wikis was much
easier TTW on Zope 2 than with moinmoin on the file system. For one
thing I did not have to keep stopping and restarting Zope 2.<br>
<br>
But a bigger issue is that moinmoin is just a wiki. There is a
single content type, wiki. When I recently put up a memorial web
page for my deceased mother, in moinmoin the text all came up very
fast, but just not the right environment for putting up photos. Plus
after an hour I could not figure out how to indent paragraphs. Let
alone other appearance changes. Zope 2 and ZWiki would have
allowed me to do all 3, a wiki and a photo page, and indent
paragraphs, but sadly they are both going away.<br>
<br>
Sorry if that does not answer your question, but I hope that it
helps. <br>
