--- Comment #4 from Siebrand <[email protected]> ---
A few questions come to mind reading this proposal:
1. Does anyone have ideas on how we can keep documentation translatable if it
is somehow part of the code? MediaWiki.org currently has this possibility.
2. It is widely known and documented (pun intended), that developers are not
great writers, nor ideal people to train wiki administrators and wiki
operators. How will non-developers be able to contribute, especially as we move
away for the wiki engine as a documentation mechanism?

Comment 3 addresses some more issues that will not be resolved by throwing away
our current documentation, however incomplete and sometimes out of date, and
starting something new. And before we can start something new, we will probably
have to bikeshed on it for a few years.

This issue could be WONTFIXed, if you'd ask me.

Take an example from Nike's slogan, and reserve time in your development cycles
to actually allow others to learn what you already know, be it as a written
tutorial, properly prepared web cast, documentation page, or whatever: Just do
it!
