Anybody with any experience or comment?
I was looking at Wikis, and this looked quite good on paper. The site also has a phpbb forum, but TikiWiki has its own forum as well as bug tracking and blogs and picture galleries, which could be useful, and it would be nice to integrate all these things with a single user account.
However the forum software looks pretty naff, not in the same league as phpbb (or even whatever CUK is using) at first glance, so that's put me off.
And generally speaking the whole thing is a bit clunky (the default page is broken in IE8 for starters), but then the other Wikis I've used tend to have that prehistoric user interface feel too.
The intent is that it becomes a knowledge base, with examples of how to do things and solutions to common problems etc., rather than what happens at the moment which is that useful stuff gets lost in forum posts and the same questions get asked over and over. Just like here.
