I agree that OOo Documentation and its dev project and support tools could be improved. I also agree a Wiki _may_ be a good solution. However, I have seen no evidence that it is clearly the best solution, or even that it is what should be done next. And even if it is, I submit that an unstructured Wiki will add more problems. A Wiki for a special purpose, such as keeping track of the documentation-dev resources and their statuses, probably should have some specific structure and rules, clearly explained (even for someone _not_ already familiar with the problem and/or solution) on its home page. Aren't there very good, special-purpose tools for supporting the documentation-development task? I'm no expert, but I would think people, e.g. the ones on SourceForge, have solved this problem well several times.
If it may be of help, the FR project is using the Doc&Files part of the site for the documentation workflow. Members are able to upload their files in the Review directory, some others can reserve the file during the reviewing/proof reading step by adding the in the Reservation column, then it is made available in a To be published Directory in order to be uploaded on the site by the site maintainers.
See : http://fr.openoffice.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=259&expandFolder=259&folderID=259 It's quite simple to use and the reservation of document is easy too.
