Not really because of ReST. Our real issue was the tool we used to build
HTML, PDF, etc. This tool was first written by dalibo, but nobody really
maintains it and it became more and more difficult to install it on
recent laptops. So, as you can see, not really an issue with ReST. And
we are changing to... dokuwiki. You surely know Damien felt in love with
this tool :)
