Wikis are good but I'm not sure that that they
do the same things that the existing document collection
does.  I could be wrong.

One thing I like about the existing documents is
the variety of output formats that you get with
docbook.  (e.g. even paper @ www.lulu.com)   (Apparently
the moin wiki does docbook output, maybe there's
an answer somewhere in there.)  This, and maybe
the "rigid" format, is the one
thing that makes tldp unique, there being a lot of
other wikis, forums, et-al out there.  I'd hate
to see this lost.

Another wiki that seems to have goals similar to tldp
is grokdoc.net.

A related question I have is the up-to-date-id-ness of the
document collection.  I went looking at the advanced
routing howto the other day and found that the tldp
version much older than what's at the documents "official"
home.
