I (obviously ;)) prefer LaTeX as well, but I agree with others that, at
least for now, we should continue to use WikiSyntax.

We tried Drupal, Wiki, and LaTeX, and only the Wiki is still being
contributed to. Drupal died for various reasons, and no amount of
committing or cajoling got anyone to help with the LaTeX (or anything
else in the RDP, really, which was a great idea).

Yes, LaTeX > * for almost everything *except* getting others to help
contribute. ;)
