If you are interested in writing high-quality open-source documentation,
you cannot avoid learning XML based on the DocBook schema--only some
senior programmers refuse to do so.  Usually it turns out that basic XML
editing is pretty easy.  In the beginning just using a few "tags" is
sufficient (approx. 10 elements, I'd say).

Wiki markup is more difficult, wiki markup looks easy, but it is highly
sophisticated.

More important is an editor that supports things like ID/IDREF
management and outline editing.
