May I make a suggestion. Been down this road too many times. Do not collect 
much information to start. Simply build a prototype with base user input and 
then open that up to comment and discussion. Most efforts like this die in 
the discussion phase. So pls, just do it and then through it out for 
discussion as it badly needed. Thanks to you both for considering this task.

Just use the comments feature as installing a wiki is brutal on that version 
of plone and requires shell access. The comment feature should suffice is you 
separate out the components of website production on a couple of pages. ie: 
new website design. website content, cms systems of choice, etc. Just use 
each page as a wiki topic and the comments as wiki sub-comments. Should do 
fine 

Thanks again for taking on this task.,
