Most developers are bad in writing documentation with either system. The=20
only thing the current system brought, were inconsistencies. Look at the=20
site. It's ugly, it's inconsistent, there are a lot of different styles on=
=20
every corner. Actually, I don't think, that it's going to be worse if we do=
=20
anything.

Said that; of course we'll try to keep the process as close as possible to=
=20
the current one, it's of our all interest ;-). But if we can make things=20
better, we *need* to change stuff. Which is a good thing [TM], simply=20
because the current site is *really* ancient.
