If I was looking for just a wiki, I doubt that I'd pick Trac either.

I like Trac because it does wiki, repository, and tickets and supports
easy linking between the three.  With little extra effort, it also
does easy linking to mailing list archives as well.

As for setup problems, that's why I'm looking at the hosted service
instead of doing it myself.  With a hosted service, the security
angles should have been already thought out and upgrades should also
'just happen' instead of my having to find out about them and apply
them.

Tony.
