I agree - the wiki shouldn't *replace* the documentation, but the reality is I have loads of bookmarks of blog posts and discussions on the mailing list, and it'd be nice if I could to go one place to find all that type of info. A "recipe" or "cookbook" wiki might be all we need, with the ability to comment on each.

I haven't yet looked at lore or sphinx, but is there a way to support sphinx via lore?
