I apologize in advance to the MoinMoin developers who happen to subscribe
to this list, but a pet peeve of mine is sites that use MoinMoin when they
could just as well use MediaWiki. Although half the time we say that we
"go to" a website, the other half we say we "look at" a website, and I'm
sure I'm not alone in saying that MoinMoin is something I'd rather not
look at if another option exists. The use of MoinMoin is probably even
less desirable than entrusting documentation to me.[1] MediaWiki is not
only easy-to-use and visually clutter-free, but also mountable as a
filesystem remotely via FUSE. OK, now let the flames begin...

[1]For a long time, I had the unpopular preference of code having zero
comments whatsoever. If someone couldn't walk through what a piece of code
did just by looking at it, I thought they should get someone else to do it
for them.
