Hi jdd,

About difficulties of installing and configuring, they are relative.
For example for me it is easy, for other people it can be more
difficult. I would be ready to help you for installing and configuring
it, especially if it is acceptable to access your server remotely.

About spam and other security related issues, I am not aware
that it has any, but maybe this is because I have not spent time
searching for them. Anyway, in case that any security problem
is discovered, I would be willing to fix it as soon as I can.

If you want a wiki where everybody can write and contribute
something, then maybe this is not the right one. The reason is
that it has a hierarchical structure of editors and permissions.
There is a superuser who is able to register other users (editors).
He can also assign administrators for each book. Then each book
administrator can give permissions to other users (editors) to
modify the whole book or branches of it.

The difference between the DocBookWiki and DocBookEasy is
that DocBookEasy cannot edit an DocBook document, it can
just display it on the web. However it supports more DocBook
features than DocBookWiki (DocBookWiki supports just a small
subset of DocBook tags). The only way to modify a document
in DocBookEasy is to modify the XML code of the document
and then to publish it again, but this cannot be done online yet
(from the web interface).

Performance issues must also be considered, since
DocBookWiki (and DocBookEasy) have somehow high
requirements of disk space. However disk size is not a problem
nowadays.

In case that you decide to give it a try, I would be happy to
help you.

Best regards,
Dashamir
