Question

It's probably blasphemous to pose this question here (please don't flame) but the boss keeps asking:

How hard would it be to skin TWiki to look more like Wikipedia? I know that runs on MediaWiki, using the Monobook css and js files. I don't understand the workings enough to know if Monobook is portable in any way.

We need a structured wiki, and TWiki suits all our needs. But the boss is hung up on looks (what everyone else does).

Any suggestions?

Environment

TWiki plugins: DefaultPlugin, EmptyPlugin, InterwikiPlugin
Server OS: OpenSuSE 10.2
Web server: Apache
Perl version: 5.8
Client OS: XP

Hmm, from a competitive point of view it would be good to have a MediaWikiSkin for TWiki. Creating a new skin from scratch is substantial work. It is easier to change the look of an existing skin. I'd start at PatternSkinCustomization.
