maybe an option is to look at xowiki:

to address some of the items mentioned here so far:

  - it is php-free

  - implements various security policies (some pages can be made public 
modifyable, others
    are modifiably only for some developers)

  - it has already some converters (e.g. from man format or from 
doc-book generated HTML)
    see the import/export section towards the end of the documentation 
below)

  - keeps versions in the content repository

  - to add automatic conversion via dtplite should be straightworward 
(keep revisions
    of the dtplite sources in the content repository, generate html on 
the fly)

  - has full text search, categories, notifications, rss, glossary, 
file/image support....
    (some of these are inherited from openacs)
