I agree with Uwe. The current approach is a lot easier, much more
maintainable, and gives a good overview. The threshold is a little bit
higher, because you have to actually send a mail to someone, but maybe
that isn't really such a bad thing after all ;-)

IMHO, wiki is only suitable for early stages of a work in progress, when
things are in a state of flux, and having centralized documents is a lot
of overhead on synchronization. But once things stopped moving, the
whole wiki hierarchy (which is usually a huge mess by then in which you
get lost very quick) should be organized into centrally administered
documents.

Just my 2 cents.

cheers,
Remko
