Re: How about COMEDI wiki?

I myself run some database-based wiki, and never had anything to
maintain. Probably the most sophisticated task is to choose a skin :)

Wiki engine got natural way of keeping eye on changes by keeping all
versions of documents and by sending notifications to maintainers.
Probably, forum-like registration (with good protection from automatic
bot registration - spammers usually do not enter their spam by hand)
is enough. I do not think that premoderation of accounts is necessary,
as if I would like to enter some small correction, I need first to
undergo long registration procedure, so I think better way is just
post-moderate all changes.

Wiki also got natural discussion engine so one can discuss the given
information right away.
