MediaWiki on RHEL 6.3 ZipKit
MediaWiki is a wiki package that was developed originally for use on Wikipedia. It is now also used by several other projects of the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation. (See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki for details.) Its licensing conditions apply solely to the software itself, which means that although many wikis license their content under a permissive license, you are not obliged to license the content submitted to your wiki in any particular way.
