Yes it is very easy to incorporate the existing docs. The new markup
is super simple, I have reformatted the  devguide from latex and it
looks like this:

http://atlas.bx.psu.edu/pygr/_sources/guides/devguide.txt

and renders like this:

http://atlas.bx.psu.edu/pygr/guides/devguide.html

I've done this manually, it is a fairly straightforward
transformation, but I will need help
doing them all, because there are quite a few such documents.

Here is a chance to contribute for everyone who wants to do something
easy and important.
