Ok for me. As long as the theme is something modern and readable, 
registered users/gardeners can rollboack edits, and there is a wysiwyg 
editor, I'm ok with it. (Docuwiki has these features at least)

Well, of course a forum is better, but it also carries much more work 
than a wiki (I mean much more work to not just have a massive empty 
space where any post echoes loudly like current OpenWRT forum, that does 
not do any good).

I mean, hoping someone will answer people's questions is certainly good 
and all, but to truly kick-start a forum (i.e. attract people into it) 
you need some semi-official guys that camp there and (do their best to) 
answer people's questions, and that might become a heavy burden fast.

I think we should avoid forums for now and should lay out the wiki's 
plans in a wiki page and activate a plugin (there are at least a couple 
for docuwiki) to make a "talk" page or "discussion" page like 
Wikipedia's for wiki volunteer interactions.
