Disclaimer: I am no ZWiki expert, but I'll try to summarize
what I think I have understood.

The point of ZWiki is that all the spaghetti can be thrown away by _you_
and replaced with something better without asking anybody, as long as
the result is something much greater :-) ZWiki is about ad hoc collaboration
to quickly involve other people by giving them the right to improve
anything anywhere. This philosophy is just like the ZDP-Tools philosophy,
with the difference that the ZDP-Tools enforce a hierarchy on the
stuff, while (from what I know) in ZWiki people organize the content
in a way that best suits their needs.

Greetings,
