    Actually, the only other project using Confluence, Geronimo, uses it
    as a main Wiki (at least the "Wiki" link from the main G. site points
    to Confluence). So I hope this is not so.

    I haven't seen any mention that Confluence at Apache wasn't intended
    to be a general purpose Wiki, but rather that it doesn't scale very
    well. And the static site plugin (not sure what it is called exactly)
    was supposed to address this issue.

    We had a discussion on that some time back and there was a desire to
    preserve Confluence as a Wiki, the main reason being that we are
    using it as a documentation engine (relying on its export feature),
    but also because it more feature-rich in general, and we have lots of
    Confluence content already.
