A WikiWikiWeb is a collaborative hypertext environment, with an emphasis
on easy access to and modification of information. MoinMoin is a Python
WikiClone that allows you to easily set up your own wiki, only requiring
a Web server and a Python installation (1.5.2, 1.6 or 2.0).

This release adds page templates, an include macro, pluggable actions
including a very nice spell checker and "LikePages" navigation. The
keywords found via the fulltext search are now highlighted. Finally,
"RecentChanges" now shows diffs against the version you last viewed
(possibly spanning several changes), which makes it much easier to
keep yourself up to date with a wiki's evolution.
