Thoughts?

I think the reason for the disconnection is due to the docs not
being stored with the wiki and I don't see what can be done to
merge the two since they are two completely separate and
different sources of documentation.
BTW, it turns out I didn't notice the wiki link until after
reading your post! The link should be a button or something else
that's much more noticeable and friendly for users to explore.
One grip do I have is that the "improve this page" system is
rather unfriendly, and because of this I've not yet taken the
time to research what I have to do to get to the point where I
can contribute improvements. I suspect it turns away most people
who otherwise would try and contribute.
In any event, what I see with the new document format is a very
very large improvement and the sooner it is implemented (even
with some of the minor flaws not yet fixed) the better.
