It can fulfill a wide range of roles, such as a personal notes organizer deployed on a laptop or home web server, a company knowledge base deployed on an intranet, or an Internet server open to individuals sharing the same interests, goals or projects. A wiki is a collaborative hypertext environment with an emphasis on easy manipulation of information. MoinMoin 1.3.4 is a maintenance release that fixes several bugs and introduces some new features. See below. Upgrading is recommended for all users. - http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinDownload Major bugs that were fixed -------------------------- * Fixed a few non-critical ACL issues which might have led to leakage of pagenames. * Workaround on Windows 95, 98, ME. This fixes some bugs related to an outdated page list and newly created pages that did not appear immediately. * Fixed decoding issues of page names on Windows, finally. http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/BrokenUmlautsInLinksIn131 * Fixed traceback on IIS. http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/request%2epy_broken_on_IIS * Many fixes in WikiRPC. * Fixed backlinks - the result did not always show all links, often it showed too many irrelevant matches (MoinMoinBugs/BacklinksAreBroken). * Fixed the acceptance of the show_hosts setting. Now you should be able to hide any IP or host name from being published by MoinMoin by enabling this option. * Fixed free parent and subpage links in interwiki notation. http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/FreeParentLinksAreBroken * Various other bugfixes. Major New features ------------------ * Added the pragmas description and keywords. They will add <meta> headers if used. * The search modifier "linkto:" was introduced.

Complete Unicode support, translated system and help pages in more than ten languages, and support for languages written from right to left are the base features of our internationalisation support. * Fresh look and feel. New default user interface design, improved existing themes and enhanced theme plug-in framework that make it easier to modify the design or create completely new user interface. * Find anything on your wiki, instantly. New search engine and streamlined Google-like search interface, using multiple search terms, regular expressions, search term modifiers and boolean search. * Antispam - keep spammers out of you wiki. Protect your wiki with automatically updated spam patterns maintained on the MoinMaster wiki, and shared by all MoinMoin wikis worlwide. * Underlay directory - easy upgrade and maintenance. New streamlined directory layout protects all system and help pages in a separate underlay directory. * Run with your favorite server. Use either a standalone server that requires only Python, the high performance Twisted server, Apache with Fast CGI, mod_python or plain CGI. * Multiconfig - easier, more powerful configuration. New class-based configuration allow you to easily configure single or multiple wikis sharing a common setup. MoinMoin History ================ MoinMoin has been around since year 2000. Most of the codebase was written by Jürgen Hermann; it is currently being developed by a growing team. Being originally based on PikiPiki, it has evolved heavily since then (PikiPiki and MoinMoin 0.1 consisted of just one file!). Many large enterprises have been using MoinMoin as a key tool of their intranet, some even use it for their public web page. A large number of Open Source projects use MoinMoin for communication and documentation. Of course there is also a large number of private installations.
