[wiki-research] Wiki Engines as CMS

I have recently attended DrupalCon and was surprised at their wiki
session at how many people there just seemed to "not understand"
wikis.  This could also be because I've been attending so many wiki
conferences lately...

Anyway, I think it might be an interesting research project to compare
wiki engines from a CMS point of view.  So far I've heard of/seen the
following wiki engines used as a CMS:

JSPWiki
TWiki
PmWiki

I think MediaWiki would not have the flexibility to run as a CMS, but
I could be mistaken.  Are there any other wikis known for being
flexible enough to also run as a CMS?  Also, feel free to view the
wiki popularity charts (by Google) I made a few months ago:

Thanks,
Chuck
