I could but:
- PHP
- MySQL
- not git
To me a VCS seems like a much better back end than a RDBMS for a blog/wiki.  There are plenty of 
examples that are functional and attractive.  Versioning is to me a necessary feature.  Although a 
DB might make sense for relating comments/attachments/stuff it seems easier to add that to a VCS 
than to build a VCS in a DB.
For what I think of in blog/wiki, LAMP and CMS are so much overkill.
I didn't mention that I probably won't use Apache, but I probably won't.  (I do need to think about 
a non-tech user friendly wiki, which might not be ikiwiki, and therefor might require Apache.  But 
I'm going to try to avoid that.)
