I have a silly little wiki engine I made 20 years ago. It was an exercise in trying to better learn the traditional unix text processing tools. So the page templates were in m4, sed and awk did their traditional heavy lifting for request parsing and page generation. and page history was provided by rcs. Which fit better than cvs because it provides a history per file.
The whole thing is really the mother of all injection vulnerabilities but I am still half tempted to try and spin it up once more and see what happens if i put it on the public web.
Killed themselves after using it for fifteen minutes. I used to have to teach a commercial "Intro to Unix" course which had a section on SCCS - shudder!
The nostalgia hits hard.

Where does that leave the SCCS people?
