I can work with straight XML and
for most docs that is a good plan.

I think that for a UG though, we can get a lot more feedback if it stays in
a wiki.
Remember that the people using the UG are less likely to be experienced or
even interested in CLI but many already know how to edit in a wiki.  We need
the people who use the document to be willing to fix the document.  Even if
they never contribute to other documents.

Once we get to Install guides, deployment guides, security guides and other
such stuff, then submitting bugs and editing xml are more reasonable
expectations.
