[Red5] Announcing the Red5 open wiki

[Daniel Rossi]

I think mediawiki is a clunky system. I've discovered ontowiki which  
is a semantic wiki done in zend framework / php5. It allows for  
customised frontends but yet to get that far with working with it.  
Tried to have a go setting up customised mediawiki's for tutorial and  
howto websites, but the extensions and the system itself i found quite  
clunky :\ especially when handling its forms and the lack of a  
templating system.
