My feeling is that the documentation (including tutorials and samples)
belongs with the product, and content about OpenJPA the project should
be separate from the product. I do not think that docs should move into
a wiki, although I do think that there are a bunch of advantages to
keeping the site content (i.e., the stuff that's not versioned along
with the product) all in a wiki, since I find wikis more accessible for
editing than HTML + SVN etc.
