It would be nice to move the foundation/ content to the Wiki as well I
think.

I think it would help a lot of the devs that are put off by the concept
of XML/XSLT. Just give them a little wrapper script to generate wiki
output.
One of my large concerns was how to handle some of the tag conversion.
We have a lot of custom tags, plus some interesting behavior in some
tags.
Sven's XSL makes a very good start, but somebody needs to put in some
TLC for the following tags in conversion, and/or can we have it emit
something useful so we know when we hit a tag that's missing in the
XSLT.
Here's my list of tags found in proj/ that aren't in the XSLT so far:
(the "/>" is just because I collapsed the tag of any attributes, there probably
needs to be an audit of how the XSL handles attributes).
