Also consider how far up you want to scale. I have seen several
organizations starting with MediaWiki or a "we built it ourselves in PHP"
systems, and after discovering that they doesn't really do proper
permissions and delegation — had to migrate to other solution (in our
cases, Plone). It's not cheap to migrate stuff between solutions either,
so choosing a project that gives your room to grow seems to be one of the
strong stories for Plone.
