It comes with a script that downloads the project wiki (by jumping from link to link) and then converts it. In the build environment we cannot download the wiki like that, so we would have to run the script at packaging time and provide the wiki pages as inputs. This sounds tedious and maintenance-intensive. I prefer option 2.
