Hello devs,

Christian and I discussed about how to write the Mapbedner3 documentation for workshops.

My idea was to write the documentation in rst like it is done in the OSGeo-Live-project [1]. I wrote the documentation for Mapbender 2.7.x like this [2]

We would write a rst-textfile which we can compile to html or pdf with Sphinx [3]. We can keep this file at github and Christian mentioned that github supports rst-files and can display them as html.

This is how the rst-file looks for mapbender_quickstart.rst in OSGeo-Live [4].

An advantage would be that we could easily provide the documentation for OSGeo-Live if we want to add Mapbender3 to the OSGeo-Live project. And also we can easily use the documentation as a template for customized workshops.

What do you think about this idea?
