== Background ==

We are currently using moinmoin version 1.9 for this wiki. Version 1.9 [[https://github.com/moinwiki/moin-1.9|requires Python 2.7]] which is no longer developed by Python upstream, and will not be available in future Debian releases. Moinmoin 2 solves that and had many other improvements, but it is [[https://moinmo.in/MoinMoin2.0|still in development]].

== Features ==
=== Current ===

 * Not tied to HCoop accounts, and anyone can create an account
 * [[https://moinmo.in/TextCha|TextCHA]] for spam prevention
 * Domtool/installer help for member's own installations
 * Filesystem storage

=== Desired ===

 * Current content can be migrated
 * Actively developed
 * Ability to use hcoop account to reduce need for additional login/account

=== Options ===
