For (2) - in case we go for mediawiki - this may be of interest:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/DocBook_XML_export
-> see 'Related Projects' for links to converter.

In case we go for the Wiki approach, we need a strict caretaker
to keep the structure of the book intact (since it needs a flow
rather that "degrading" into an encyclopedic style set of articles).
