Hi John, Thanks for giving it a go. I've not tested the python stuff on linux so it might be some platform specific issue I'm missing. 0. You'll need to `git checkout -b origin/docs` to switch to the only branch that has the doc stuff in it 1. http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Documentation#Setting_up_Python_and_Sphinx_for_the_first_time 2. run this which should work: sphinx-build -a -E -W -n \ -D version='$ver' \ -D release='$ver-git-sha' \ -D project='Apache CouchDB' \ -D copyright='$year, Apache Software Foundation' \ -d $TMPDIR/couchdocs/ \ rst/ \ `pwd`/manual Feel free to give the github approach a go http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Documentation#Editing_Documentation_via_GitHub as well. The wiki is ripe for updating if you get it to work; I'm away for the next few days. A+ Dave
