This sounds like a wonderful idea! I know nothing about asciidoc and
will have to read up on it a bit. However, it sounds easy enough to
set up the web page database under git, and then anybody who wants to
can help develop it. This strikes me as being much more flexible than
the wiki pages. So let me do a little bit of research, and I'll get back
to you (and the user community at large).
