At FACIL, we're also using moinmoin for our wiki, but our website
isn't a wiki. Actually, it's a static copy of the wiki, without all
the wiki buttons and navigation and a slightly different look. Each
page of the static site is copied 24h hours after it's changed on the
wiki, automatically. All pages of the wiki are editable by anyone.
I could adapt gow (the little piece of code bridging moinmoin and the
FACIL website) for civic access if you think it would help.
See
http://facil.qc.ca/ and
http://wiki.facil.qc.ca/ to see what I'm
talking about. Yes, gow needs a little upgrade to easily support both
official languages, it's on my todo.
P.S. may I politely ask we keep our quotes shorter in replies to this list?
