This effort looks interesting. Maybe there are things to learn from and 
adopt especially the application

Wow, those are some clever ideas.  One demo that is working is:

http://kvota.net/sarma/view.py?document=1

That's a DocBook XML document editable through a Web interface, with
workflow wrapped into it.

We should definitely look at using 'sarma'; we need someone from FI to
work with us to find out about the stability of the tool and possibly
set up an instance in a virt environment to run some tests with.

This is the one tool to rule them all. When this is ready, there's no
need for a three-pronged approach (MoinMoin, Plone, Docbook XML).

Sarma promises to be the best of both worlds. You have the flexibility
of output from DocBook with the ease-of-use of wiki-style online
editing. To top it off, it's GPLed and part of an upstream project,
GNOME.

It's definitely worth exploring.

This looks very promising indeed.

I'll dig into it some more later on today. Hopefully one of the FI folks 
will arrange a setup for us to play with it a bit. :)

You will have to mail fedora-infrastructure list with your requirements 
or pop up in #fedora-admin and talk to them. I dont think many of them 
are watching all the conversations here.
