Seconded. A wiki has a low barrier for entry, can cross-link/refer
to/include verbatim other specs or documentation on the 'net, can be
edited collaboratively - and, probably the biggest pro currently, can
be searched in with whatever search engine you like.

What's more, a wiki more explicitely expresses the fact that a spec
(or feature documentation - a lot of the things we're currently
calling 'specs' are actually after-the-fact documentations) is never
finished, but a living document.

I'm all for this, and David and others have set an excellent example
that it actually works.

Just my 2 cents...
