Even though the "looks" are "just" a stylesheet, not directly related
to the wiki engine itself, I find that quite surprizing. When I was
looking for a suitable wiki engine, dokuwiki was one of the very few
with a default look that seemed attractive and "professional" to me.
(It seems the default stylesheet borrows a lot from a Python CMS
tool, Plone, btw). MoinMoin's look I didn't like, certainly not
the incarnation on the python website.
More importantly, most wiki engines, including dokuwiki, seemed to
miss some features that I consider essential, such as a sidebar
for navigation (but not only that). I have put in quite some
work to add those missing features to dokuwiki myself. For the
details, see:

Of course I would have preferred a Python tool instead of php. But,
dare I admit it, my websites are on yahoo. No Python there. Yahoo
hosting may have been a bad decision in the past, but on the other
hand, php is (unfortunately) the lingua franca of the net, so I'm
confident it will be a nobrainer to rehost the websites if necessary.
Personally I'm quite happy with the current solution - it is now
what I looked for. Therefore, in the near future I have no plans for
more wiki-related or website-related efforts or changes. (Maintaining
content and keeping the tools current is enough work.) Also, next year
I will probably have less "open-source" time available, and I plan to
devote it to MyHDL itself.
