Isn't this basically the skew problem with any documentation 
which is not integrated with a release.  A secondary source 
necessarily lags the primary released code; a wiki, or other 
webpage can linger 'forever', particularly if cross-linked or 
mirrored

(I was unpleasantly surprised to find content that has 'rolled 
off' planet.centos.org, being mirrored by two seemingly 
separate unaffiliated third parties in a search earlier 
tonight -- static content that _will_ last forever, and be 
'uncorrectable' - sadly it appeared in the google results 
before the primary source article I was seeking)

I think wiki's (websites, secondary sources in general) seem 
to degenerate into 'write and abandon' because the 'payback' 
for keeping them up to date is less than the satisfaction of 
moving on to new development, once the old 'itch' is 
satisfied.
