OpenKH
OpenKH (Open Know How) is a bliki written based on Ruby on Rails framework. It provides a hybrid of wiki, blog, and forum with an understandable table of contents like that of a book. It aims to be an effective tool for small to medium-sized open communities to easily create knowledge base.
The knowledge base is a collection of categorized topics. Topics can be:

- discussed like a forum, summarized like a wiki.
