And, for what very little it's worth, I agree with the goals and most of the methods of meeting them. The only reason I didn't support this suggestion more strongly earlier is that I seem to recall that similar suggestions had been investigated by the "responsible parties" and rejected.
To convert stuff from the wikis to "more manageable(?)" HTML or even PDF, for the needed functions, "to somehow concatenate separate wiki pages into a single wiki page page, fixing absolute URL artifacts", and "change absolute URLs to relative URIs, then doing lots of manual link checking to make sure all your links have been properly preserved/restored", here are some possible helps:
The reason I haven't talked too much about this, is that converting the
stuff from the Wiki will be NO problem at all. I will be able to create
a Perl script that will take the information from the Wiki, and convert
it to whatever format is needed.
The main thing is getting the stuff in the Wiki, with the correct
content, etc.
I will start looking at creating a script to do this now, and post
something over the weekend, to show what can be done.
