What do yea mean with "well ahead of"?
If my understanding of that phrase is correct, then you are wrong =)

All of the downloadable manuals there are from the same date and
(plus/minus couple of commits) revision (chm/echm vs
bightml/chunkedhtml).

I don't trust the Windows box to build the online (*.php) manual,
sorry. Plus, it would be an nightmare to sync all the files to the
rsync box.

The .php, bightml.html, chunked*.html are more or less the same
rendering (IIRC), so it doesn't really take that much extra time to
render them on the rsync box anyway.


As for other downloadable manual formats, didn't we discuss at some
point moving (read: adding) the pdf builds to the box?

In fact, I think it would be great to start pushing out all our
"other" formats[1] from the windows doc box is building. It doesn't
look like it will be doing any php-src anyway, so why not use the
machine a little?
There isn't any development on (most of) them anymore, and those who
care about testing them did that long long time ago...


I think the "fetch-chms.php" script doesn't really care what it
downloads, so we could re-use that for the other formats and populate
the LatestCHMBuilds.txt file with the new formats.
That should automagically make the rsync box copy the files over to
the rsync space.

Someone would need to look at the download-docs[2] script to enable
the download, but I think that is all that needs to be done?
