I am objective. I have no idea why you rabbit about "There is no True 
Wiki" - are you ignorant of how wiki started? The first one, 
WikiWikiWeb, is still online if you want to refer to it. I say 
MediaWiki is not a wiki because it doesn't share enough of the 
WikiDesignPrinciples or reasons WhyWikiWorks (see 
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WhyDesignPrinciples and similar). It's OK if 
you disagree with my conclusion.

My comment is nothing like zealotry and it's dumb to try picking a 
fight with my religious beliefs.

If the software changes, I may be not be technically hindered in using 
the wiki, but if it's MediaWiki, wouldn't it be easier for me to edit 
the main site? $DEITY knows, I've had little enough time to do that 
lately. So, I'd best end this email and free some time now.
