Wiki is much more appropriate space for writing articles like those 
Michael is writing.

People writing articles should not be forced to use github and also Wiki 
articles are instantly visible on site and could be edited by existing 
people and there is also space on personal blogs for random articles 
that could be integrated after re-visioning them.

If one wants version controlled docs, it can do that on Openindiana 
servers instead of reinventing and rewriting everything and moving docs 
outside Openindiana project and without checking articles from existing 
people in the project..

Wiki is much better and easier to use and should be used to fine-tune 
texts before publishing on OI site, so that text on site doesn't jut 
"appear" one day on site like it is now.
Anyone wanting Wiki account, is free to ask on IRC. (having your blog 
writings or sending article vie e-mail helps).
