Hi, yes this answer help me a lot. 
They let me understand, that spinx is not the solution :-)

So, what I can look about a solution for my prob?
I mean:
- build a centralized store of doc (it could be a wiki,but any sudgestion 
are welcome) with privilege access
- writing doc in RST format
- export the same base of doc in different format  (i.e. one format to use 
as a book, one format to use as a wiki ...)

are that info enought?
