Let me be the first to offer my services as wiki admin to LEDE as I did to
OpenWrt.
ssh root access would be helpful. At least I need access to
<wikihome>/conf/userstyle.css
<wikihome>/conf/wordblock.local.conf
Access to daily backup with easy playback script would be helpful (just in
case).

Reading through this thread, I see
- some support for Dokuwiki, with the main advantages: 1) we know it is
working, 2) there is an experienced admin with in-depth knowledge of the ToH
(me)
- no reasons against Dokuwiki
- some notes to avoid MoinMoin
- some mentiones of Twiki, but no good reasons to switch to it
- some mentions of Mediawiki
To get things going, and since there is no obvious reason to switch the wiki
software, I advise to setup a Dokuwiki, if no one else has good reasons
against it. Please slow me down in case I'm going too fast.
> - Setup the chosen wiki software - we can use LEDE's donated Digital
> Ocean resources to setup production and test instances
Very good point: Test instances!
I did this with my "demowiki" on a raspberry pi, but having a dedicated test
instance or even better clone of the productive wiki would be really great.
Looking forward to build a wiki from ground up.
Oh, what is really needed for this build: Discussion between the volunteers,
either via mailing list, or via forum. I'd prefer the latter, since it's
easier to access for the standard user than a mailing list.
