This is developer's info, and I think most developers rather use the wiki than the other types of documentation.
I think the real problem is that the website uses a template system that is hard to preview. The advantage of the wiki is that previewing is easy. The disadvantages of the wiki are a) it's not stored in git b) there's no way to do local editing and previewing c) the formatting is crap
It'd be nice to have the best of both worlds, i.e. a wiki backed by git, and written in such a way that users who preferred to avoid online editing could use git to edit it locally, using an easy local preview tool, with strong formatting capabilities (like html) instead of the unhappy situation we have now, where formatting is an unreliable mystery.
The other good thing about our wiki is that it has very good uptime and performance (thanks Dimi). - Dan
