The book module is often seen as the documentation in/for Drupal. But it falls short in a couple of areas:
* There is only 1 hierarchy that never really fits all needs
* There are no standards in structuring the information inside a post, so 1 post might actually explain more than 1 topic
* You can only export individual pages or top level chapters with their children, you can't easily export cherry-picked topics (across chapters) into 1 document
* Version management is handled through the forking of the whole documentation
