Actually, I meant wiki according to its classic, collaborative meaning:

What you folks are describing is a web page, not really a wiki.

Exactly, and that is appropriate for something whose primary target is 
organizations that are giving large amounts of money and time to the IETF. A 
"collaborative page" can easily go sideways with contributors who don't 
understand the parameters of what is meant to be there. In many cases such as 
WGs, such sideways motion is fine; for a page whose audience are often people 
who don't know about the IETF but are tasked with deciding whether or not to 
give us significant financial support.
