I think reStructured test whenever possible and structured text when not 
possible.  It helps to standardise these things and if we only use 
MoinMoin for the docs already written that way we can start developing a 
structure of portable documentation.

My main thought is the semantics of the text is far more important that 
the style of the text.  We should be thinking in terms of what the text 
means semantically (headings, paragraphs, lists, chapters etc) rather 
than how it looks.

Although moin allows us to do this it is also pretty much limited to the 
wiki.  ReST would be the best option IMHO due to it's portability.
