I'd agree that wiki is a good place for collaboration and the development of
this place of documentation too. But I just want to make sure that we use
the website to have some kind of high level information, and also somewhat
detailed first steps to get people going, we could take as an example what
is available for DAS :

  High Level : http://incubator.apache.org/tuscany/das_index.html

  Java Overview :
http://incubator.apache.org/tuscany/java_das_overview.html

And then, what DAS has available in the Wiki :

  User Guide :
http://wiki.apache.org/ws/Tuscany/TuscanyJava/DAS_Java_Overview/RDBDAS_Java_User_Guide

I think the wiki is the best place for development of this type of
documentation.  It is so easy to update that I hope it will "invite"
others to participate.  I also like Venkat's idea to snapshot content
developed on the wiki to include in a milestone distribution.
