[Tech] request for a TWiki

[Jamie O'Keefe]

I like the idea of a wiki, especially one that won't get hacked.
Plone 3.0 adds wiki support:

"Plone takes a novel approach to the wiki format — incorporating
support for it in all existing documents. That means that we support
wiki markup in any type of content — be it plain text, any of the
text-based markups, HTML — it even works with Word and PDF documents
if you have display transforms set up for these.

A common complaint about wikis is that they have weak access control,
and promote bad site structure. This new approach to wiki in Plone
means that you can get the benefits of the quick and easy wiki content
generation and linking, housed in a world-class content management
system with proper access controls and the multitude of features
exclusive to Plone.

It's wiki, without the wiki aftertaste!"
