I have no problem with dokuwiki. Looks fine. Just to add though, the
fact that people don't bother to skin mediawiki, is not the fault of the
mediawiki software. I'm sure there are plenty of dokuwiki sites with a
default look/feel too :)

Personally I would choose something like redmine. A trac like system,
but better from what I have heard from people who have switched.
