Exactly, you can do anything from a data exchange to a full ground-up
rewrite on the wiki.  Then we can worry later about converting it to
DocBook and replacing the obsolete guide.

I'd like Karsten to pitch in his US$0.02, but it might make good sense
to paste a header at the top of each draft page on the wiki with an
invitation to help.  Then we can change the docs.fp.o link to send
people to the wiki draft so they see that work is going on and might be
enticed to help.
