That's true if you plan to ship the doc with the product. cTAKES documentation has been solely on a web site for all but the 1.x releases. The benefit is that the user never has out of date documentation in their possession. Users of cTAKES don't seem to need offline documentation, so I would vote to leave it on a web site.

Wikis make it often a bit harder to version the documentation with the release and eventually require a manual step to include them in the distribution. Over at OpenNLP and UIMA we use docbook for our docs. The documentation lives in subversion as the rest of the code, and can be build and packaged fully automatically with maven, like any other component/module.
