I agree very much. It would be great to have a wiki. For
most packages
docbook is a huge overhead for a one-page documentation.

While I agree with you that Docbook is a "pain"
somehow, please keep in
mind that the original intention was to be able to easily
transform
documents to other formats. Guess that's not that easy to do
with
Wiki-style (or you lack flexibility).

E.g. Typo3 uses pre-defined OpenOffice-templates and parses
HTML
(including images, tables, ... - even chapter-structure) out
of them.

But the technical details finally lead to a doc-centric
discussion which
we might want to revive on pear-doc again imho.
