This got me to thinking (watch out).
Why not keep a "techdocs" directory in gnucash-docs in which these types of things are maintained in xml format. Then, occasionally, we can press HTML versions for the web site, and text versions to place in the various locations of the source code (such as docs/). Building these things do not need to be a part of the build process, so nothing complex to setup. These documents should not (I think) be available in the gnucash help system, they are there just for the convienience of the developers.
What do you think? Stupid idea?
Advantages: 1) centralized location for all tech docs, no duplication of effort. 2) multiple output formats (.ps, .pdf in the future too!). 3) easier to work with in terms of internationalization.
Disadvantages: have to write in xml, rather than ascii text.
