I'd suggest that successful monetization strategy has already been accomplished at w3schools. Is it pretty? No. How about Stackoverflow? Prettier and that seems to work ok too.
Looks like MDN was on mediawiki at some point. It worked fine then too.
Who pays for Wikipedia?
Who pays for NPR?
People do use fundraisers from time to time.
Where are all the Universities in this? Should they have a roll in any of this? Seems like all the Ivy League places could donate? Maybe they already do.
I suggest that if the management team at Mozilla were actually good at their jobs maybe MDN would already me profitable. I'd also suggest that it's in browser manufacturer's interest to provide documentation. If MDN disappears something will fill that void. Maybe it's time for a change.
If all else fails, just slap everything into a man page.
