Pierre,

I wouldn't say useless, but a kind of Sisyphus job. The way you described works of course, but between starting and releasing this document the content in the Wiki may change. Then one have to transfer the Wiki changes to PDF again and so on.

Of course an exported document is outdated after the first change too, but with an export function supported by Wiki software an up-to-date document is built within a few clicks.

Mediawiki has export support too, but we're discussing this from time to time and agreed to transfer our Wiki to DokuWiki. As I want to finish this now, it wouldn't be fair to let you put effort in the old Wiki what will possibly become obsolete then soon.
After the transfer, there will be some Wiki gardening necessary, maybe you want to support us with this job.
