 We need to understand what exactly stops our progress.

I think this is obvious. Ten years ago LDP was nearly the only doc
source. now there are so many others... each author have his own Web site.

 We

yes

, and we need a place where to put those documents.

we have this one :-)

yes, but how can we reach this critical mass? We have approx 70
subscribers to the wiki, but 3/4 writers.

Wiki by itself can't be a sufficient advertisement, but the static
pages are, given the mirrors and the google visibility. But these
pages are old and need updating. to update we need to port them to the
wiki...

We then have to port them back to the static site. question is do we
need to use a static wiki version or port to docbook and use the
toolchain. Probably both.

Anyway, static wiki or docbook conversion, all this is conversion
scripts...
