   TWiki is very powerful, but the code is not very good. However, it's easy
to extend via plugins.

   Its permissions are not terribly good. At least, I have yet to understand
how they work (may be bugs, though, because few people use fine-grained
permissions in Wikis).

   I recommend trying it out (easy to install.... or terribly hard, compared
to Instiki O:-) ) and see for yourself. And install PhotonSkin (at least,
photonsearch), written by my company (we use it everyday for almost
everything). The search function in TWiki sucks badly.
