This is a major benfit if you want to add a weblog, web/database
application, xml-rpc, ftp, etc to your site ala Zope. Then again, there
are non-zope applications that do this also.

I've been sniffing around the MoinMoin wiki and I can't see "way" more
features. There's the printable page feature, that's nice:

This would be easy enough to do in Zope in a few minutes (perhaps I'll
send Simon a patch). The indexes are nice too:

ZWiki doesn't have these features. ZWiki has the parenting and
heirarchical mapping construction features I don't think MoinMoin has (I
could be wrong):
http://zwiki.org/zwiki/Lnet/backlinks
http://zwiki.org/FrontPage/map#FrontPage
Both MoinMoin and ZWiki have revision history and diffs:
http://www.encrypted.net/~jh/moinmoin/moin.cgi/FrontPage?action=info
http://zwiki.org/zwiki/FrontPage/manage_change_history_page
What other features does MoinMoin have the ZWiki doesn't and vice versa?
