I personally would prefer a wiki system based on Git to allow

editing, like Ikiwiki.
Yes, I agree that the current wiki setup is very awkward and
clumsy to use.
However, my preferred solution would just be a MediaWiki
instance (with a slightly customized theme, of course), because
this is what everybody is already familiar with from Wikipedia
and other wiki sites.

If it's just the syntax: gollum understands mediawiki. The
advantages I see are no need to setup and administrate a custom
solution and the core people of the D community are already using
git.
That I don't need to use a crappy web interface if I don't want
to is a big plus, too.
