MediaWiki

MediaWiki is a free software wiki package originally written for Wikipedia. It is now used by several other projects of the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation and by many other wikis.

This can be configured on a windows platform with PHP & MySQL and it takes no more than 45 minutes. This is a good article describes the installation process.

I wanted a Wiki running in my home environment, for a long time.Only found time today - a poyaday, which is a holiday in Sri Lanka. Wikis are being used in many software development companies within their intranet as a way of knowledge-sharing.
