So far I've seen lots of "yes, use this" type comments so I'd like to 
ask how this compares in user friendliness to the current wiki (assuming 
that you can get to it because the spammers are taking a rest). I've 
never used any of the alternatives that have been proposed so far. Are 
they wikis? Are they usable for a non-technical user? The wiki, you 
press a button and you can edit content directly and see what it will 
look like before you save it. You can link to other pages easily, you 
can format content how you want it easily, often just at the press of a 
button.

None of what I've heard so far sounds even remotely as usable as what we 
have now.
