just place a Link to the dragonflybsd.org page ?

There is a link there, but people would tend to look at the official site FAQ when they start off.

The goal here - and Max/Sascha can correct me on this - is to shorten the
path/time between thinking about information, and having that information
published.  The wiki FAQ is diligiently updated, but it's harder to
encounter than the dragonflybsd.org one.

Diligiently updated would be a bit strong. But there are some changes that have been added recently.

This gives some of the speed and "low entry cost" advantages of using a
wiki, without having to directly use one.  In this case, the wiki serves
as a sort of staging ground.  I think it's a spiffy idea, and much more
complete than my initial "howzabout a wiki?" thought.
