Ask HN: How do you keep project knowledge public?

2 pointsmagnet_ball1 comment

One common aspect to many successful teams I see is that they use some sort of knowledge sharing and open discussion platform instead of a forum.

What forum/wiki/project tracking software do you use to share professional knowledge?

We use Redmine http://www.redmine.org/ - works well, nicely integrated with wiki, issues, repository browsing. Wikipedia overview: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redmine

Chiliproject https://www.chiliproject.org/ is a fork of Redmine. I have done a test install but not used it seriously.

I've used Trac http://trac.edgewall.org/ also. I like Redmine better because it has (or had, have not checked lately) better multiple-project support.

Our "front office" folks use Alfresco http://www.alfresco.com/ but their use of it is almost exclusively as a Microsoft Word storage shed.
