There is much right in what you say. One: its counter productive to
get into a meta-discussion at this point. Two: This discussion will be
very very long :-)

Maybe... Here's a rundown of what needs to be done:

 * We had some bugs with our RDFS -> MoinMoin script (which I just
fixed this and updated the wiki  pages)

 * Copy (or "branch") the pages in the bulleted list on
http://xesam.org/main/XesamSearchUnstable to versions ending with a
100, like fx: copy http://xesam.org/main/XesamSearchAPI to
http://xesam.org/main/XesamSearchAPI100. Like you see in the other two
releases listed on the front page.

 * Fix all links in the newly copied *100 pages so that they point to
the other *100-versions

 * Make a Xesam100 page just like we have for Xesam95 and Xesam90

 * With all this done, run a custom script of mine that collects all
the relevant pages and create PDFs
