imho:

- no need for secrecy after there is a site that people can contribute to
- it should be rolled out right away as long as it won't take resources off of 
things like the 4.0 release marketing management

the things needed to have a site people can contribute to (again, imho):

- the kde documentation team notified so they don't feel they've been end-run 
(they probably have good input to offer, even)
- a working wiki with the oxygen style
- a kde subdomain (so sysadmin needs to be alerted and brought onside)
- a basic structure as we did with techbase when it was "devnew" so when 
people show up to contribute the chaos is chanelled
- editors (yes, plural. you need at least two people subscribed to the changes 
RSS feeds)

it's actually not a HUGE amount of work, it's just a lot of little details. 
dominik and danimo did a great job showing how it can be done with techbase.
