The advantages: 1. kubuntu and xubuntu do it 2. you just adopt our build system so you get pretty html docs on doc.ubuntu.com (example - http://doc.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/school-advocacy/C/index.html) 3. the docteam can help you with content and formatting 4. collaboration = good > 2.

It is very easy to produce both html and pdf docs, we do both for the {ku}{xu}{u}buntu docs. By the way - note that if you continue working on the wiki for now, you will be able to take advantage of the Moin2Docbook processor which will instantly and reliably transform the work into a docbook book or article. This is part of a summer of code project which is already working really well.
