Yes, I think wiki/html is the proper format here - all other projects doing the same and I don't see complains about that. Maybe I'm wrong but I opt to move snippets with examples and explanations to wiki.
The main problem with out current documentation is scale - it's very large, there should simple step-by-step tutorial with links to wiki pages with more details on given topic.
