Exactly.  I was also wondering if the community at large or our BDFL,
Stuart had any interest in an asciidoc-specific wiki, implemented with
asciidoc.  I noticed that the web page is growing quite a bit, and it

submitted content if there were a crowd-sourced solution.  Just wanted
to test the waters and see what people thought of this.
