The manual on the wiki is the most up-to-date version of the manual, though it's out-of-date compared to Quicksilver. One of the reasons we/I put it on the wiki was to get more changes into it and not be blocked by me. The manual was always meant as a complete description of *everything* QS can do with ALL the user tips I could find. At the time there were a ton of "get started quickly" things on the web but nothing in depth, it was meant to fill this hole. As such, I'm still quite partial to the structure (perhaps too partial). One advantage of it being on a wiki and in sections is that things can link to it in relevant ways, e.g., all the email related plugins could link to the email section in their help and people could perhaps be guided to other relevant plugins/commands.
