Barry,

What about making a special branch in the git repo for documentation?

That way anyone with access to the git repo could easily add to the
documentation as needed.

The nightly build could just check out that branch and compile it from
whatever format you want people to edit it in (presumably latex or possibly
docbook) into pdf (and possibly also html).

Cheers,
Lane
