"Thousands" is hyperbole. The wiki has been a meta-community resource
throughout the history of the project, and shutting it down so the only way
to use it is to sign up to Apache is the wrong move. I see a whole lot of
YAGNI thinking going on here. How about adopting the principle of being as
permissive as possible until there's a problem that needs solving?
