I don't recall exactly, but my main requirements were plain text data 
storage and some sort of ACL or robust spam filtering option.  (And I 
had tried Instiki once before and it just didn't float my boat.  Maybe 
it's changed. But see note below.)

Basically, the feature set of Dokuwiki was too compelling.

Also, see

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instiki

"As of October 12, 2006, Instiki does not appear to be under active 
development anymore, and its own website has not been functional for 
some time."

The rubyforge page looks out of date, and instiki.org wouldn't come up 
for me.
