Status of ASP.net wikis? Any good ones?

[darrel]

We have a rather large set of legal documents that are currently maintained
as Word files. This is tedious and a pain.

I've built a mini-CMS to allow them to maintain these documents as
structured files stored as XML. this works, but is still a bit tedious for
them to update. THe main problem is that the documents don't follow a set of
standard semantic rules, so even though it appears structured, it's still
very much random in it's format.

As such, I'm thinking a nice compromise might simply be to store it all in a
Wiki. this would make it easy for internal folks to update as needed and not
terribly difficult for the public to access.

However, the last time I went hunting for ASP.net wikis, I didn't find much
(about a year ago). Aside from Sharepoint (which will be a year or so before
we get fully running), are there any new viable ASP.net wiki options out
there?

FlexWiki seemed to me to be pretty sophisticated.

The 2005 and 2006 builds ( 1.x ) had architectural problems.

See this page for details :

It looks like the 2.0 version will rock, though!
[ After they add SQL support, caching and security... ;-) ]

If your requirements aren't too complex, Screwturn Wiki will do.
