Bo Leuf and Ward Cunningham wrote a book called The Wiki Way
http://www.wiki.org/ that I understand introduces the concept. However,
Ward's site at http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?WelcomeVisitors has a list of
Wiki software at lot of which is open source.
I am looking at installing a Wiki for my own research and helping
increase the interaction with my PhD supervisors. I would see it more as
a collaboration tool rather than a knowledge capture tool.
In contrast with Michael's work, a wiki is much more web page based with
the users able to edit the web pages. Some versions include topic maps
and other knowledge management techniques. Weblogs are also being
incorporated into some Wiki tools.
Some of the more feature rich versions possibly come close to what
Michael is doing.
