Working Up

I have the MoinMoin wiki up and running on a Windows XP machine. I am running a local-only version – no server capability. This was pretty easy and took about 15 minutes.

The source for all this is the MoinMoin site. I downloaded the 1.9 release from their download page. This docs page explains how to install everything. I used the one-minute install version (no server). It worked.

One caveat – youneed Python installed on the computer. I already had that and was mildly surprised that everything worked as it should. If you don’t have the Python software on your machine, the MoinMoin download page has links and instructions.

I am experimenting with MoinMoin to see if would work as a requirements management or RVTM (Requirements Verification Traceability Matrix) tool on an upcoming project.
