 we are currently using ikiwiki to host our documentation. that has served
 us well so far: it's available as a static site in the static mirror
 system and allows all sysadmins to have a static, offsite copy of the
 documentation when everything is down.

 but ikiwiki is showing its age. it's an old program written in Perl,
 difficult to theme and not very welcoming to new users. for example, it's
 impossible for a user unfamiliar with git to contribute to the
 documentation.

 gitlab wikis, in contrast, have a web interface to edit pages. it doesn't
 have the macros ikiwiki has, but that's nothing a few commandline hacks
 can't fix... or at least we should consider it.

 this is not blocking the trac to gitlab migration, but it would be nice to
 jump onboard with everyone, since we will be migrating the Trac wiki onto
 gitlab as well...
