Sorry for not mentioning this earlier, but how tightly is schoolbell
tied to twisted?

The MoinMoin wiki is Python-based as well, and can use twisted but also
other interfaces. There's detailed descriptions of several different
setups using twisted, Apache, FastCGI - and even within Windows and
MacOS environments - here: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/HelpOnInstalling
