Yes, this is one of the things I'd like to have changed with our current
documentation.  Originally, the idea to go online docs was due to having
diagrams, screenshots, etc.  Unfortunately, nobody on the doc team has gone
to that effort and therefore HTML documentation may not even be necessary
anymore.  We could even just have URLs in the documentation that link to
images stored on the website.

Either way, there's a lot to be done on the docs, we just need people to
help get it accomplished.  I'm sure you wouldn't want the AC coders to stop
and work on the docs for the next month to 2 months.  Not to mention, I
don't think you'd understand much of what they would write anyway.  =P
