I suggest liberal use of links between the two wikis, a rigid
adherence to the "everything lives in exactly one place" principle.
If others think it's a good idea, I'm not averse to moving parts of
the documentation from one wiki to the other, leaving redirect tags at
the old location: mediawiki has a nice export feature which allows
doing this while preserving all the history.  But the idea that there
will be multiple copies of the same page with slightly differing
information on them gives me the willies.

But a good start would be starting a "Sugar Documentation Project"
here on some topic and starting to generate some good unique content.
A "community news" type weekly feature would also be nice.
