I'm not at all sure if it is what we want in general, but it is
extremely simple for me to spin up a Confluence wiki side-by-side the
JIRA instance. If we need something now it can be done in a matter of
minutes, not sure of the feasibility of using it long term (I think it
could work long term, but I am not pushing for that at all).

There are numerous ways to export data from Confluence, but if we
anticipate that being an issue we should investigate before using it.

In fact, it's so easy to enable the Wiki that I have gone ahead and
done so, in case you want to investigate it.
