Cool, sounds great. I think getting something up quickly here for the 
summit is the most important, so I'll leave my comments at that.

OK, I can't leave my comments at that, so I'll throw in some more,
but all post-summit :-)

 - Having a a maintained Wiki, commonly used Wiki site doesn't bother me
   much from a security point of view, but having CGI scripts sitting in
   a corner unmaintained would be a problem.

 - Any Wiki we set up permanently should have fairly strong registration
   procedures that prevent Wiki-spam. This might just be hoping on an
   IRC channel and finding someone to enable your account, but shouldn't
   be automated.

 - Structure and outdated content are the great failing of Wikis. Having
   a team actively moving stuff around and cleaning up is probably 
   essential.

 - From looking at MoinMoin in the context of
   http://fedora.linux.duke.edu/wiki it seems like a reasonable choice.
   It's horrid, but no worse than any other Wiki. :-)
