Hi,
go for it, whenever there is a slot to do it. I did not push this to not put yet another task on SAC's list and as you said it is stable as it is.

Once there is a place where the Wikis could go there are several more waiting to be set up or migrated there. I suggested earlier that MapGuide get its own Wiki and the Mapbender Wiki could eventually move there and once we get OSGeo Deutsch formalized there is the FOSSGIS conference Wiki that wants an OSGeo home. 

Best regards, 
Arnulf.
