You stripped the sentence where I say: "but 'documentation-oriented' was
not an ontological statement."  Which was meant to convey the idea that
I don't think there are wikis strongly more suitable for documentation
than others.  Still, I think many of the functionalities/extensions of
dokuwiki are here because of the need for collaborative documentation.

Anyway, I'm happy with the current emacswiki.
