I've been meaning to post this for a while.. here's a quick progress 
report for http://zopewiki.org so far.

April: good initial activity, about half a dozen editors

May: quiet, basically no editors other than me; minor downtime

June: steady low edit & new editor rate; noticeable downtime due to zope 
hangs due to zpydoc triggering a python/extension class bug,
now worked around

I think people are finding the site useful. I certainly am. I need to 
set up some access stats.

http://zopewiki.org/ZopeWikiStats currently shows 345 pages, 86 of them 
rated, of which 16 have 2 or more votes. 22 sites and 60 products have 
pages.

Products have been grouped into rough categories which seems to be 
helpful, see http://zopewiki.org/ZopeProduct .

An experimental all pages index has been added to the front page.

The footer was fixed so that it shows random quotes and tips from 
various pages.

http://zopewiki.org/ZopeLists is quite useful for finding things in the 
lists.

Open site issues (see 
http://zwiki.org/FilterIssues/filterissues?sort_on=severity_index&titlesearch=&textsearch=&category%3Alist=zwiki.org&category%3Alist=zopewiki.org&status%3Alist=open&status%3Alist=pending 
):

- except in minimal mode, page load times are a little slower than they 
should be.

- the site restarts about once a day to work around an unknown memory 
leak. The first page load or two after a restart will be rather slow.

Open questions: what impact is the site having; how to integrate better 
with other sites/irc/etc.

Site announcements are found at http://zopewiki.org/ZopeWikiNews ; the 
latest post
also appears on the front page.

http://zopewiki.org/ZopeWikiDiscussion has been quiet - most discussion 
takes place on #zope. I have not yet enabled any mail features.

It's your wiki.. input welcome.

Best,
-Simon
