Revdocs on a wiki

[Chipp Walters]

Perhaps I don't know enough about wiki's, but it would sure be nice if 
they could organize data in a form which could be printed in a real-book 
format (and had an 'export to PDF' button which did just that, including 
TOC and index).

While they do provide a nice 'random-access' interface (search & find), 
I'm not sure they can really take the place of good serial 
documentation, which has a beginning, middle and end. And it sure seems 
like *that* is most needed as well. In fact, I believe the original 
RevDocs (mostly written by Jeanne DeVoto) were written to accomplish 
both ways of accessing information.

Perhaps Dan Shafer or Jeaane DeVoto might weigh in on this topic as both 
are accomplished documentation writers.
