The developer's wiki was the developer's wiki until other people noticed
that they had no wiki so they started using the developer's wiki as a
catchall place ("hey, we advocates have nowhere to wiki on; can we use
devel's wiki?").  Now that we have a real wiki it makes sense to create
separate areas on it for each team.

That said, we have links to the developer wiki all over the web.

So +1 on moving the developer's wiki to the other one -- but only if the
original URLs continue to work (redirecting to the new site).
