John,
Doug pointed out:
 <cutting> ecapriolo: infra prefers that the site's actual content is
in svn, so it can be reconstituted easily.  that's the convention.

Thus #2 is now my preferred option.

@Carl
Thank you for pointing that out.

@John & Carl &whoever else wants to chip in.
So a while back, Jeff suggested we moved to Anakia. We ended up going
with this. Which I did and I also spent about two days painstakingly
copying and revising all the information in the wiki into xdocs. I am
not able to go to the hive contributor meetings since I live in NY,
But essentially writing xdocs was not giving everyone a warm fuzzy
feeling so no one has edited any of the xdocs and the wiki is out of
sync with them.

1. I will be happy to stay with the XDOCS for official documentation,
IF AND ONLY IF, We decide committers can edit and commit themselves
without having to wait for a review.

I really do not wish to dump the xdocs (since i had to sped that time
writing them and figuring out how they work) but supporting anakia,
forest, and a moving wiki does not seem like a good idea. If no one is
going to edit them but me we should dump them as well.

Edward
