I had a quick review of their musings, and while interesting they missed 
what for me is the biggest point about a wiki - the multiple authorship.

I can't see how to satisfy the Attribution of a document that has had 
multiple authors, some anonymous, some pseudonymous, and some 
identifiable/contactable.

Perhaps the wiki back-end changelog maintains the attributions for me, 
but not all wikis preserve the changelog when you backup/restore.

Ideas welcome ...
