Yes, I plan to port all the documentation and scattered tidbits over
to this format. Everything is/will be in the main repository tracked
via git. Besides html one can format these docs as latex/pdf or plain
text.

And a reminder (that never ceases to amaze me)  most of the code
samples are actually executed and verified that they produce the
presented outcome. There is a hidden section in each doc that allows
us to do some scaffolding for code snippets that need some
initialization - without complicating the main documentation.

One outstanding issue is how to format the pygr API  that is
automatically extracted from the sources:

http://atlas.bx.psu.edu/pygr/epydoc/index.html

We can use Sphinx for that as well, but over the years I have grown
fond of epydoc. It directly generates  javadoc like files from the
code with no other step involved, I really like the frame based
navigation here, usually frames suck but in this case allows one to
jump to various documentation sections with ease.
