I set one up for work a couple of months back (running on our LAN,
obviously), and it's been really useful.  One of my collegues who sometimes
works with me, and sometimes does other stuff asked me this week if she
could start using it for her other stuff - she's having to co-ordinate a few
people, and a manager wants to be able to track the progress of the project,
and she reckons it'd be good to do it on the Wiki.

Out of interest, which Wiki have you been playing with?  I'm using MoinMoin,
since it's simple and Python.  I've used one or two others, and I like the
MoinMoin extended syntax better than others' (particularly ZWiki...)

Cheers
Richard
