For daily use, and point-of-presence of the SME community and its activities, all documents will be available on a website(s) and readable through a web browser.

* Provide documentation for every contrib, even if it's only “rpm -Uvh ...”
* Allow users to post content to the web site, whether through wiki or articles
* Allow users to link to documentation hosted on external sites
