I can do the merge part.
information is here : http://ktmatu.com/info/merge-pdf-files/

Yes. We should give it some thought. Fact remains. Someone has to install an
maintain it.

I once compared TWiki and MediaWiki and Twiki didn't seem to bad a choice back
then. The look is somewhat uglier than MediaWiki but this is question of
CSS/HTML design. Can be changed. I have seen conversion script
MediaWiki->TWiki. Some people decided to go the other way.
I have never used MediaWiki. How does it support different languages. As far
as I can see it sets up a different Wiki page for each language instead of
working like gettext.
Same can be done in TWiki. We just have to follow our own naming convention
WhatCanBeDoneToday
WhatCaneBeDoneToday_DE
WhatCaneBeDoneToday_FR
A shell script can be used to look for missing tanslations because each
language has iit's own file. What cannot be automated is the check to missing
content. I highly doubt MediWiki does that.
TWiki has some info on multiple languages on the Web as well.
Personally I neglect my German audience because I don't have ressources to
tranlate all content. Furthermore I often decide to document in English
because I potentially reach a wider audience.
In the future we might have another job for fellow non-coders : translators
BTW. The flyer is way cool. I have wanted to come up with something like this
for a loooooooong time. But without the cool pictures it doesn't look as
good. So thumbs up for your fine work.
As I said I can merge pdfs and offer them for download - which can be linked
into a promo section in our Wiki.
