I think it makes sense to start with an annotated link list, since that's a good way to make it quite useful very quickly, and then to expand it over time with original content, with the intent of replacing most other documents. As I see it, the wiki-based Handbook plus the Policy Manual (including sub-policies) should be enough. One step might be to convert the New Maintainer's Guide into the wiki format, then importing any missing information from the Debian Developers' Reference to it. Putting it all in the wiki is good, so that it is more easily editable by everone, thereby hopefully keeping things up to date at all times. (I know it's possible to file bugs with patches against suitable packages to get those two documents changed, but it's way more work than just editing a wiki.) -- Talk is cheap.
