I don't think "readthedocs.io" provides a valuable service. It's a static 
website built from Sphinx. This would be free, without ads, on many services.

I guess the problem I have with this is that it looks a little corrupt. Like, 
why is Mozilla supplying display advertising real estate to "readthedocs.io", 
when it could easy host the pages itself, or on github, at zero cost? The worst 
interpretation would be that it pays someone's buddy.
