After using the wikipedia (a free encyclopedia on wiki basis - http://www.
wikipedia.org) I am convinced that a good KDE wiki could become THE 
information source about KDE (development). The wikipedia proved two things 
for me: a wiki does not have to look ugly (in particular the links don't use 
the hardToReadCamelStyle) and that literally thousands of contributers can 
work together productivly.

AFAIK the wikipedia CVS version allows editing sections.
