Documentation system requirements

[Benjamin Kerensa]

If this is something you wanted to do as your own project then go for
it, but I do not think Canonical is going to invest time or
infrastructure into something like this. We already use Launchpad for
revision control and it works quite nicely.

To build a platform from the ground up seems like a lot of work not to
say that it cannot be done but in the past we looked at other
platforms like SUMO which have hundreds of Mozilla Developers working
on it and found it to not be the right fit.

The problem lies in that there has not been one solution to harness
all the things.
