Tim Donohue commented on DS-1036:
---------------------------------

+1 for removing HTML Docs from Source Code (as an online version is now 
available on the Wiki)
+1 for *keeping* PDF Docs in the Source Code (so that we have one 'offline' 
copy of formal documentation still distributed with DSpace code.)
+1 to also moving the contents of 'postgres-upgrade-notes.txt' to our formal 
documentation on the Wiki (if there is worthwhile content there).

I also welcome any README changes others would recommend. The only files we 
must obviously keep are the LICENSE and NOTICE files (which detail our current 
DSpace Code Licenses & License history).  Beyond that, anything else can be 
changed/modified as we see fit.
                
> Cleanup Documentation and README files (Maintaining HTML Docs in SVN creates 
> "merge noise" for enduser developers.)

> I recommend we drop storing html versions of the documents in the SVN.  
> Having these here creates merge noise when they are regenerated across 
> versions.  Using the PDF seems sane. 
> Likewise, I recommend that the following file contents be consolidated into 
> the documentation and removed from Source.
> http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/dspace/trunk/dspace/docs/postgres-upgrade-notes.txt
> Possibly recommend getting rid of some of the "docs" directory structure and 
> instead put one PDF copy of Documentation at top level of project.
> Other recommendations for consolidating READMEs and Documentation Welcome....
