Hi Jason,<br>
<br>
You hit the nail on the head with the lead dev not wanting to
distract the team with managing another platform.<br>
An Atlassian hosted instance of Confluence is the best option I
could find as well.<br>
<br>
I did find a couple of others such as ourproject.org <br>
but it has a not so nice feel to it on first look,<br>
and we are aiming for a nice professional result.<br>
<br>
The user experience is one of the reasons why we don't want to use
the wiki sourceforge provides as part of the project,<br>
it's UI is too cluttered with sourceforge related stuff, it gets in
the way for end users.<br>
<br>
Thanks for the suggestions and the tip about the hosted Confluence
being a bit sluggish.<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
David G<br>

<div>You can run your own copy of it too - in AWS for example as
Onno suggested, but in this case you can just go with a full
open source solution like MediaWiki.</div>

<div>* no affiliation with Atlassian although our company does
use some of it's hosted products including Confluence. I like
it but my feeling is the hosted solution is sluggish. Not
horribly slow, but since we use it so much I would prefer it's
snappy fast and it's just not. It is nice not to have to worry
about managing anything though and it's always up-to-date
etc....</div>

everyone,<br>
<br>
Is anyone aware of any good cloud providers that offer wiki
services?<br>
Ideally mediawiki syntax with multilingual support.<br>
We would prefer the ability to provide our own sub domain to
point at<br>
the service also.<br>
