Hm.  From the ITP:

	http://purl.net/wiki/moin/

No reduplication of "moin" in that URL.  Also, at sf.net their project page
is sf.net/projects/moin and home page is moin.sf.net, and the files offered
for download there are called "moin-x.y.z".  It seems that in spite of the
project officially being called MoinMoin (mimicking WikiWiki, and *not* an
attempt to avoid namespace collision with your hypothetical "Moin" package)
there are several precedents set by the project itself for shortening that
to just "moin" in path and filenames.  I don't see why the Debian package
name should not follow this convention (after all, officially, the package
name would be MoinMoin, not moinmoin).
