F.8. 8. Where Will the Wiki be Hosted?

The location and hosting of a wiki can be a contentious issue and it is one that needs addressing early:

  • Will your IT group want to host it?
  • Or, will they actively be against the idea?
  • Can you host the wiki at a departmental or project team level?
  • Should you use a third-party hosting company?
  • If you have to, can you fly under the radar and avoid potentially nay-saying IT groups?
