i'll volunteer to install and maintain whatever wiki people want to put
up.  i have some experience doing it for work and other orgs.
particularly with mediawiki and the cvstrac wiki.

however, i'd like to suggest an alternative: twiki - http://twiki.org/

while mediawiki is great, twiki seems to be taking wiki's to another
step.  i hate to use the phrase, "web application platform," but it kind
of fits what twiki seems to be aiming for.

it allows you to develop forms, spreadsheets, graphs, etc.  and it has
an access control system mediawiki lacks.
