Len has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Our support team asked me to setup a Knowledge Base for internal use.
Lightweight
Web based
Searchable
Ability to add attachments (screenshots, patches, etc) to the entries
Preferably running on a database backend
low cost
Preferably written in perl (that's my point :) )
too complicated (Complete helpdesk solution)
in a too early development status
simply not looking serious. (Good developers aren't always good designers :) )
The Knowledge Base should have the following features:
I've searched on freshmeat, sourceforge and google and found several solutions.
Still I didn't found something that suits our needs.
What I found so far was either:

I can start writing something myself, but I'm sure there must be something already available Open Source.
Any comments / tips are highly appreciated !
