I'm not so sure this is a good idea.

I think a wiki is an excellent collaboration device for support,
because it can be updated easily and by any concerned party... but I
think these features actually make it a *bad* match for a home page. 
This is where the "official" information regarding the project should
be found.  Of course, you could restrict edits to the "official" pages
to the regular contributors, but then why are you using a wiki?

In addition, if you look at the content of the menu in discussion, 90%
is located in the release folder, which contains generated html pages
and doesn't mesh well with the wiki world.

Wiki sites are supposed to be structure-simple and content-rich.  I
think a project home page needs to be structure-rigid as well as
content-rich.

This doesn't mean that the wiki doesn't have a place, but it doesn't
have to be the main home page to be a useful resource.
