So you want the site at the root domain in drupal? Fine for me and I would work on it. Input for layout and design is welcome and needed. Yes

For all features I mentioned I welcome drupal, but I'd like to hear some other voices:
@ALL
What you all think if most people like better a wiki (mediawiki) to care for documentation??

So most people will be satisfied. - We could setup this proposal and spread the word quickly.

I checked the sites you mention and found kde prepares their docs offsite and post links to pdf files http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdeadmin/ so this is different to us.
gnome uses for contributed docs also a wiki, I guess moinmoin https://live.gnome.org/
And elementary project does it in a "drupal book" style ie.
http://elementaryos.org/docs/user-guide/installation/getting-started

We could start with drupal http://diaspora.openspirit.de/ - contact me here for admin password
If we like to leave it here, you could set the ANAME entry to my IP lateron.

I am pretty much open to everything you suggested. My preference for a wiki would be mediawiki, since I use it myself and I have some experience with it (it can also be set up to generate pdfs and it has a nice api).
To me, what is important would be a single-sign-on to whatever software we will end up using, possibly with my github credentials (oauth?)

Or maybe we just quickly make Diaspora an OpenID provider, I bet there's a gem for that…

Checking oauth for drupal...

I vote Yes! I had similar ideas. Diaspora is not using the domain diasporaproject.org as they should (It is way to static and hardly ever updated). And it should be a link from joindiaspora.com to diasporaproject.org.

I am OK with doing a CMS offsite for documentation for now, but are we agreed with what documentation IS?

I am not OK with doing a CMS offsite in the long term, because it can't be closely coupled with the user experience on the stream.

If it can be (such as integrating the same login/auth), I'd like to know how that would work in the long term. I'd like more discussion on that.

How would such an interaction be fluid and NOT confusing to new users?
