To add to that, there are really two wiki's - official docs (WW) and
the informal docs (S2WIKI), and only the former requires a CLA.
Anyone can access and edit the S2WIKI.

The fact that the main docs require an CLA is a business decision, and
not a limitation of the wiki software.  As Dave mentioned, we decided
to require a CLA for WW because it is considered official,
distributable documentation that contains copyrightable information.
