Hi guys,

I'm pretty sure that I won't be able to make it to this meeting, but
would still like to contribute a pointer to Wikkid:

    https://launchpad.net/wikkid

It's a wiki that uses bzr as a back-end store, which provides various
benefits. So far, I think they support WikiCreole for markup.

>From the website:

    A wiki that is backed by Bazaar that allows local branching of the
    wiki for later merging. Also doesn't have any page locks and uses
    Bazaar's three way merging.

    The wikkid vision

    * Any wikkid wiki can be branched locally for off line editing.
    * Any branch can be viewed using wikkid - not limited to branches
      created through wikkid
    * A local wikkid server can be run using a Bazaar plugin
    * Local commits use the local users Bazaar identity
    * Wikkid can be configured to operate in a stand alone, public
      facing mode where it has a database of users
    * Wikkid can be integrated as a library into other python applications
    * Wikkid uses standard wiki markup languages - not inventing its own
