Most wikies store the docs in text files which can be extracted. Next the
LDP (Linux Documentation Project) has a wiki engine that outputs Docbook.
Since Kwiki, used on DebianWiki, is supposed to be so easy to enhance why
not mod Kwiki to output SGML/Docbook on demand.

Once the document has matured, in that no one is making modifications it
could be transferred to newbiedoc. My main concern is to get the document
created in the first place. I'm sure we can figure out the best way to
publish it when we've produced the documents.
