[Air-l] wiki tool suggestion?

[Steffen Büffel]

Hi Radhika!

I am currently using http://www.mediawiki.org which is the wiki-engine 
behind Wikipedia. I decided to use mediawiki since most of my students 
are already familiar with Wikipedia. But I will definetely have a look 
at the other engines that were suggested...

Good luck!
Steffen
