The make.jl in Documenter/docs has the appropriate incantation. Try this:
cd(joinpath(Pkg.dir(),"Documenter","docs"))
include("make.jl")
Then point your browser at XXX/Documenter/docs/build/html/index.html (where
XXX designates your Pkg directory).
The developers seem to have dumped their mkdocs.yml so more work is needed
to build a local copy of the polished docs.
