This week Rogers Cadenhead has witnessed the effective wiki collaboration of the ECHO project. His post "All hail the mighty wiki gods" he indirectly pointed out the revision history feature of MoinMoin.
Earlier in the week he mentioned "the requirement to learn a new markup language to post is daunting."[link] Another markup is definitely a barrier to entry, compounded with each wiki usually carrying there own markup, only to be pacified by markup which allows inline HTML.
...followed-up with an interesting blog entry about Wiki Outlining (and here).
Zwiki has revision history for undo perspective, but not per a strong version control, and I've pondered the necesity of it in a "lightweight documentation repository." Does the label "ultra-living document" demand or obscure version control?
